PERFECT...This is EXACTLY what I wanted to do. All I was missing was
the SET PROCEDURE TO. (I use PRG classes.)
Thanks, Fernando!

If the library will be used only by another VFP apps, then there is

the
clients.
*Approach 1:* Using VCX inside EXE
You just compile an EXE with your classlib and then use externally on
other
VFP programs.
Let's say that youur library is called "mytestlib.vcx" and the class
you
want to instantiate is called "operations", which have methods for
mathematical operations:
*- In you other VFP Apps:
oOps = NEWOBJECT("operations", "mytestlib.vcx", "test_obj.exe")
? oOps.get_sum(1,2)
*Approach 2:* Using your library not as VCX, but as PRG and doing it
the
main program of the EXE
Let's say you have this program as the main program of the
"test_obj.pjx"
project:
* main_test_lib.prg
DEFINE CLASS MyClassLib as Custom
FUNCTION Get_Sum(value1, value2)
RETURN value1 + value2
ENDFUNC
ENDDEFINE
Then, when you want to instantiate this class, you can do it this way:
SET PROCEDURE TO test_obj.exe
oOps = CREATEOBJECT("myclasslib")
? oOps.get_sum(1,2)
There are other approaches, but I think that any of these can be useful
to
you.
