As I can see, all the happy ODBC users are on 3.1.2 version of AIM*. We must have 3.2. or later installed because of problems with Windows XP pro SP1. At least we were told so. Are you guys using 3.1.2. on XP pro SP1? Another observation: I have tested OLEDB 3.2.1 with different environments and it seems to only work while in Visual Basic. As soon as I use the COM object with ASP or PHP, it starts to misbehave. Any suggestion? I think it has something to do with parameter passing by value or by reference which works differently in ASP than in VB?! Ales.
