OK I grabbed Connection, Qresult, Results, And convert off csv.

Does that get me up to date using the snapshot as the original
source (also it converted to .net when I opened it and is compiling ok,
so I must of mucky-mucked it up trying to create the project in .net).

Use a CVS client (I use TortoiseCVS) to keep up to date. It's the only
way you know for sure you are up to date. Also, compile from the command
line using the win32.mak makefile e.g. " nmake /f win32.mak ". Doing it
in the GUI will be more tricky as you won't necessarily get the build
settings right (even I didn't when I tried the other day). You may need
to run vcvars32.bat to setup the VC++ environment. Finally, use VC++ 6
if you have it. .NET may make you dependent on newer versions of the
runtime libraries that we haven't tested.
