Re: Strange problem when using a class module in VBScript

Thank you Chris,

I have always had the project set to No Compatablity and never had any
problem.
I have probably updated this dll a couple of dozen times and it has run fine
on three different servers, starting with NT4 and progressing to 2003.
It is called from some VBScript files to run some data feeds once a day.

It looks like I will have to stay with the debug version and just run it as
a regular exe file.
I don't want to start messing with this compatability issue, the dll
contains two other classes that is used by a Web site so I can't afford to
take chances with that.

I think we should all be using UNIX/LINUX.
