COM objects need write permission 1

[teolica]

Hi there,

My name is Teolica, and I need help!!
If the VFP application calls a DLL to do some tasks, should the DLL be installed and registered on any workstation?
If so, how can you guarantee the write permission that seemes to be required?

If you use regular DLL (API) there is no need that DLL to be installed on every local station, you just need o know where this DLL is located.
But in your Message you refer that you use COM object.
If the DLL is not installed on local machine you could use CREATEOBJECTEX() (I never make it works, don't know why
So I prefer all my COM objects to be installed on local machine. Aboute write permission, nobody (except Sysadmin) can guarantee that you will have write permission.
That is only my oppinion and maybe I am totaly wrong
