Hi Stephan, In both cases, this is relatively new code, which might not yet have been there in OOo 1.1.x. And, in both cases, your specific VC++ version seems to be too old to accept the code. thanks for your reply! I come up with some serious problems using C++ and OO with Version

Did you experience this in a Version 1.1.x as well? I got similar problems with the C++ API using 1.1.3/1.1.4: After executing a lot of API calls OO crashes (tries to send an error-report). The code-line where the crashe is happening is always different. I could improve the behaviour a little
