That's not exactly a composit control. That's just controls grouped together in a panel. Composit control is something you can put in your toolbox and reuse. This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. Alex Korchemniy

See the NGen Overview. You can also "rebase" during compilation by using the /baseaddress compiler option or set it in the VS.NET project settings, or use the rebase tool. The dox for rebase are here. Ian Mariano - Bliki | Blog "We are all wave equations in the information matrix of the universe" - me

What it comes down to is the CLR host. The ASP.NET host is hardcoded to use the Web.config file as its configuration file. The executable loader by default uses yourapp.exe.config. In your case, it's odd that aspnet_wp.exe.config is being used. In any case, if you are using a wrapper, perhaps your wrapper has a chance to create the AppDomain that hosts the COM+ service itself? If so, when you are configuring the AppDomain, you can specify any .config file you want so long as the CLR can resolve the location. See AppDomain.SetupInformation for more details. -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.21 GCS/G/MU d- s: a- C++++ UL@ P++(+++) L+(--) E--- W+++ N++ o+ K? w++++ O- M(+) V?

If you unregistered channel, Client doesn't have means "to talk" to Server. It's the same if would you tried to get reference to object without registering any channel. You have to register channel again before the call of Activator.GetObject. "...hasn't really been well accepted ... as the ratings tell us so far :)" - Nishant S

There is an article on Code Project by Detlef Grohs that describes the process for creating a single instance application in VB.NET. You could use the same technique with modifications to achieve what you want. It involves using Mutexes and .NET Remoting. The article is here: http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/sing_inistan.asp[^] There is also a sample on MSDN called "Real World Applications" that describes a similar technique (using C#). It's located here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnwinforms/html/reaworapps1.asp?_r=1[^]
