As we attempt to migrate some multi-tier code from BCB3 to BCB4, we 
encountered the following...

The sample function:
{
WideString WS1;

MidasConnection1->AppServer.Exec(Function("SampleMethod") << &WS1);
}
compiles/links fine in BCB3.  In BCB4, we get the error:

[Linker Error] Unresolved external 
'System::AutoCmd::operator <<(wchar_t* *)' referenced from 
C:\Projects\TEST.OBJ

Likewise, if we have a "BSTR *" that we want to pass in this fashion we get 
the same error.  Something obviously to do with WideString pointers and 
perhaps a different implementation in BCB4/5 than in BCB3.

Any ideas, please???  Help!

Thanks!
