Hi,

I'm using OLE2.0 classes with VC++4.1 and have had no significant problems, althougth initially I had to recompile the ORACLM.LIB class library as it was compiled under VC++2.0.
The other problems were :
1. with passing variables of type LPSTR & char with the GetFieldValue dynaset class method.
2. Trapping errors with opening a dynaset.

As to the question of Grid controls, OO40 ships with a panphlet about TrueGrid Pro.
