>ActiveX data binding has to be supported before we can even think about
this. OTOH, I wonder if anyone has tried setting the control source of an
ActiveX control to the value of a field object in an ADO record set? Maybe
ADO actually gives us limited ActiveX data binding.

I would assume (probably incorrectly ... but let's assume)
that VFP6 and ADO bind correctly to ActiveX controls. Yeah!!!
The trouble is ActiveX controls constantly crash, lock,
screw-up the screen, etc in VFP. Having ActiveX controls
that can data bind but utilizing unstable controls in VFP
doesn't solve anything.
Thus if Microsoft hasn't solved the instability of ActiveX controls
in VFP6, and MS is telling developers to use ActiveX controls,
ADO data binding to ActiveX controls is useless in VFP6.
I used an product called Dynamicube (analysis grid) in VFP5. Just the most
excellant end-user analysis tool a manager could have. Brings financial data
together easily. Even did nonbinding data loads. Just one thing, VFP5 and
the control was too unstable and crashed randomly. Had to create the dataset
VFP and then run VB to use Dynamicube. (VB was too slow to gather and
massage the data with.)
Will VFP every work with ActiveX controls without crashing?
