Still throwing the same error... - ConfusedUser
@MattMcNabb No, 0x80004005 is E_FAIL "Unspecified error". You are thinking of 0x80070005 E_ACCESSDENIED - Igor Tandetnik
@IgorTandetnik oh yeah. IIRC 80040005 is what you get when the COM object segfaults during creation (which can be due to it being unable to load a dependency) - M.M

I assume here you are talking about a COM DLL created with Visual FoxPro and by the looks of it you are trying to instantiate it in C#.

Make sure you have the runtimes properly installed. You can download them here.
