Re: firing events from server

Francis,

Are you using the remote COM object, within a class or within a VB
module?
In order to process events from a remote com object it must be declared
WithEvents in a class module within your project.

Unless I'm misunderstanding what you are asking, check out the VB online
help for the WithEvents keyword.
Like:

==== in a class module within your project ====
Dim Withevents X as myComServerEventGenerationObject

Private Sub/Function X_WhateverTheEventNameIsFromYourCOMServerObject()
  <event handling code here>
End Sub/Function
