thanks for the reply - maybe i didn't explain myself very well. This was a conceptual question, as in i don't really have any intention of doing it, just wanted to know if it is possible. My example was just that - an example. My management application works fine for us, i could code my own SFTP communications or use the code from WinSCP if i really had the time or the need - which i don't; the point of the management suite is to speed up the mundane day-to-day tasks. What i wanted to know, is, is it possible to embed an Win32 application into my own application - a bit like when you use the OLEContainer VCL. For example, you can spawn a TForm then assign it's parent to a panel and it will, in effect, become embedded within that panel - i just wanted to know if that sort of thing is possible with whole application, that do not support automation. It's purely out of interest.
