Hello. I am new the the list.

I have found a problem with 7.1 .net and I wonder if anyone else has found a way around this problem. In version 6.0 of VC++ professional, I could add a CRecordView to an existing project using the class wizard. The wizard would create a cRecordset class with everything I needed to tie a SQL table to the form I created. Here is a listing to what I am describing:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vccore/html/vcconformtopics.asp

I also was able to tie all the table columns (fields) from the form directly to the table. That is, instead of creating a bunch of CStrings for the text fields, I could select m_pSet->Fieldname. This saved me a bunch of time writing new apps that included SQL tables.

With version 7.1 professional, the class wizard gives me the options of : CHTMLDialog, CDialog, CFormview, COlePropertypage or Propertypage for the new derived class. Microsoft appears to have broken this and I cannot imagine why.

I tried creating NEW projects for each of the tables I need and copying the CRecordView/CRecordSet generated classes into my main project but, they consistantly fail when I attempt to create and switch view to them in my main application.

What I am wondering is this: Has anyone here on this list noticed the change and found a good solution for it? I cringe at the idea of installing version 6.0 back on my machine and patching it just so I can get my work done my effeciently. I may well have no choice but to create my main application in the old compiler and convert it later. This is silly but, I see no way around it right now.

Thanks for reading this and please let me hear any suggestions you might have.
