| In R3, you can handle events sent by ActiveX controls.
OLEGEN utility generates an ActiveX interface class for an ActiveX
control, the utility generates a set of methods that are automatically
invoked when the ACtiveX control sends an event
These methods have the same names as the events that can be sent by the
control, except that the Forte events start with an "_".
All of this is documented extensively in the Beta R3 Integrating with
External Systems manuals

| In R2, you might try to achieve some event posting cabability through
DDE hot links (your non-Forte server would then use the DDE link to
automatically inform your Forte client of anything relevant).
Apart from that, no, you can't normally post events outside of Forte in
R2...except if you manage to call into a Forte service object, which is
theorectically possible, but unsupported and undocumented (it takes you
some fiddling with C++ code, too).
