| Visual basic support, at least in the base ObjectBroker product,
is being deprecated in a future release. At least this is my
understanding. I think that's because the Desktop product
supports it? The Desktop folks have their own notesfile on
the same system as this notesfile called:
ObjectBroker_DTC
for more info on the Desktop product.

ObjectBroker currently supports VB 3.0 interfaces on Windows 3.1 only.
This support will continue as is until ObjectBroker Bryce, where all
VB support will be removed from ObjectBroker. Customers wanting VB
support, will be directed to the ObjectBroker Desktop Connection
product which will release before OBB Bryce.
In fact, ObjectBroker Bryce will no longer have VB 3.0, DDE or OLE
portal support. The last release of OBB to include any of these will be
ObjectBroker Arches (V3.0) to be released this spring. The OBB Desktop
has the new standard interaction models for ActiveX, and these should
be used instead of the old OBB support models.

The VB 3.0 support is only on the Windows 3.1 kits. There should be an
example on that kit.
