>>> I tried what you suggested and it worked to a point. I compiled the OCX and used it in a standard project. I then put an ADODC control on the same form. I set the DataField and DataSource properties of the OCX control, but nothing is displayed from the database when I run the project.

Your control is working correctly. You only need to change one line of code in the Form_Load event of your sample.

Change

DataControl1.ewDataField = "ContactName"

to

DataControl1.DataField = "ContactName"
