ODBC Connect Dialog: Text lacks if created from a DLL

[Guest_imported]

hi,

i am writing an abstract data access framework. it enables us among
other things to access databases without being interested in the
actual underlying driver.

to accomplish this, the actual database access is implemented in a
dll which gets loaded dynamically at runtime. i wrote some odbc
code (getting environment, connecting, doing a query, disconnecting,
releasing what's necessary) which works fine in an executable.

the following problem appears in an dll: the 'select data source'
window appears, but all text fields are empty (even the buttons lack
text), and the connection fails.

anybody any ideas?

best regards,
