  1. Visual Basic version 4.0a must be installed on your system.

    To obtain Visual Basic 4.0a, please call 1(800)360-7561. Although this release is free to all registered users, there is a $5 charge to cover shipping and handling. This is only a component release and not a new release of Visual Basic 4.0 itself.

The new version has no new features and is backwards-binary compatible with the current RDO 1.0a version. This new version consists of bug fixes only.

The following is a list of the bugs that were fixed in version 1.0b:
  • Fixed memory leak in the GetRows method.

  • Fixed storage problems associated with query parameters of smallint data type.
