I am using all of the same software as you. I wasted several weeks on the
data control. Way to buggy. I finally gave up and wrote all my own custom
classes that use SQL and recordset. I have never looked back since. I have a
feeling making the datacontrol solid is low on the priority list. If ya know
what I mean.
