Yes, ASP is the invoking COM client. I have already suggested that they put
the page inside an application, which they balked at because they would have
to set permissions. So it remains to be seen whether high-security pages
will appeal to them, but it's something I hadn't considered, so many thanks.

OK, I'll see whether it's acceptable.

Fortunately MTS hasn't entered into the equation yet. I'm hoping it won't
:-)

Thanks for your response.
