Hi Jesper,

Yes, I tried it, and it's a no go. BCP uses templated member functions and
VC++-6.0 can't handle them. It claims that there's a syntax error. I boiled
the problem down to a trivial example, contacted Microsoft and they
admitted
the error in the compiler.

On the bright side, VC++-7 is supposed to be much more standards compliant,
so
you may get Bcp working with it.

Good luck,
--Laci
