As far as I'm concerned, v6 is the current version of Microsoft's
compiler. I know they've released v7, but it is too buggy to compile and
link my code. I'd liked to be using it but I can't.
Microsoft have acknowledged their bugs and say they will be fixed in v7.1,
which I gather is due within about 5 months (1Q03). I hope to move on from
v6 within a few months of that.
I mention this just for information.
