I have a Web Page that calls a VB6 COM object running on a Windows 2003 Web Server. The COM object calls the GM API which is running on a different server.

I am able to successfully Load the BDE, however, I am not able to Open any tables using GMW_DB_Open. GMW_DB_Open returns 0. This application worked fine when if was all running on one server.

Thanks very much!
 
Thanks Richard!

Do you think it would work if I were to install the BDE on the Web Server?
 

I've done that previously so that I can have the BDE loaded locally and then open just specific ports for security reasons.
