First guess would be 64bit vs. 32 bit. Have you matched the correct version of the COM? There's no COM at all if you're using 64-bit CF. Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software http://www.figleaf.com/ http://training.figleaf.com/ Fig Leaf Software is a Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) on GSA

think JIntegra has a 64-bit library for COM. COM has been DOA for a long time, so I don't think there's been much demand for it in the 64-bit world - existing COM stuff is generally legacy 32-bit. Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software http://www.figleaf.com/ http://training.figleaf.com/ Fig Leaf

We tried several different methods Dave, but COM objects are just not compatible with CF8 or 9 64 bit.  Either you need another solution or go back to using the 32 bit. Yes, you're absolutely correct that 64-bit CF can't instantiate COM objects. But at the point you're using RUNDLL32.EXE

doing that right now, but you're correct that COM is basically a dead-end - so it makes financial sense for JIntegra not to pursue this.
