It would be nice if there was warning somewhere in the documentation "that error means you have done this, and we can't cope if you have to use VC6".

Good point, although if I document every VC6 bug (just how long has that compiler been superseded for now?), it's going to take a long long time..........

Sigh. Yes :-( (BTW, our legacy tools still use VC5. VC6 didn't seem to offer much advantage at the time, and although VC7.1 is now standard compliant, there are too many other breaking changes in the extensions to be able to switch.) -- Martin Bonner Martin.Bonner@Pitechnology.com Pi Technology, Milton Hall, Ely Road, Milton, Cambridge, CB4 6WZ, ENGLAND Tel: +44 (0)1223 441434
