CAUSE
The following define statement, listed in the Libmain.c file, is incorrect
for a 32-bit build of the Odssamp.dll file:
#define WINVER 0x030A // prevent Windows 3.1 feature usage
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, change the #define in the Libmain.c file to
either 0x0400 or to the value of the #define WINVER, listed in the
Windows.h file provided by Visual C++ versions 4.0 through 4.2.
