Thanks Alex and others,

Your suggestion to include <initguid.h>

did not work at the first glance, however

I really believe, your idea is a promising one.

Initially I received the same linker error.

I am traveling just now and will have time

to focus on the subject next week.

BCB v.6 header files are partially of older vintage

(as for example the header <Rtccore.h> -

where the RTCclient API 1.2 contains newer version of it),

and may need update.

I hope to find somewhere in MSDN newer <initguid.h> as well as newer
<guiddef.h>.

The <initguid.h> is rather a kind of small macro definition shell header. It
links the

<guiddef.h> which look like the real stuff.

So in summary: the idea is to include <initguid.h> AND update the header
files.

Any suggestion where to get the newer headers?

I will return to the subject in the next week.

Peter
