Hello

I hope someone has encountered this and knows what the problem is. I've
taken over an mfc ocx project and i am normally not an mfc programmer.
I was trying to change settings to allow me to save the ocx in another
name. While i was trying to do this something went wrong and the
project started giving complie errors on the dispatch map. I have made
no changes what so ever to the code or any project files. I even
reverted all the files to an old version from the source safe and the
errors are still there. From that i would have to conclude that there
is some kind of setting that i managed to change that persists onto all
projects. The only place i think i was messing around in was the
project properties though.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
