| 2474.1 | They are NOT compatible | XSTACY::PATTISON | A rolling stone gets the worm | Mon Mar 24 1997 10:46 | 13 |

On a related subject, I have heard that installing Office 97
products potentially BREAKS any applications which were built
with VB4 (specifically, apps that use the Windows 95 common controls).
This is supposedly because comctl32.ocx is overwritten with a
version that's not sufficiently backwards-compatible.
I had a similar problem after installing Visual Interdev Beta.
Can anyone confirm/deny this? It sounds too ridiculous to be true.

| I'd heard that the InterDev Beta installed an *old* version of one of
the ocxs with a date of 2000. Hence it stuffs your other apps.
Cheers,

| Are there still problems between VB4 and Office 97? I had a beta of Office 97
and VB4 installed before and things weren't quite right with some OCX's. Is
this still a problem? Does it matter what order you install them?
Thanks,
Rob
