URGENT - Someone out there can help me !!

["Rohit Sharma" <r.sharma.1998@cranfield.ac.uk>]

I have posted at least 4 messages on as many news groups but have nt
received a single reply. This is quite in contrast to the VB newsgroups
which I frequent. So I am now making a desperate appeal for help from some
Ada  guru. !!

I am working on some legacy code (1992-96). The code is for a DLL. The DLL
is compiled using VC++. The DLL uses some *.obj files which are compiled
using GNAT 3.04. The compilation of ADA code as well as DLL works perferctly
well with 3.04 + VC combination.

I have now to edit some of the ADA code to read a Microsoft Access database.
I have the example for DCOM/COM using GNATCOM 1.3p which again works very
well using GNAT 3.13. But I cannot compile the old ADA code (perviously
compiled using 3.04) using 3.13. The problem is that the 3.04 compiles the
packages to *.obj files and the 3.13 compiles them to *.O files. MS VC
compiler does not seem to like *.O files (even if renamed to *.obj).

I admit I am not an ADA expert and in desperate need to help !! So any help
on the following would be helpful.:

1. Can i read access database using 3.04 ?
---OR----
2. Can I compile ADA code to *.obj file using 3.13 (like 3.04 does).
----OR----
3. Will gnatcom 1.3p work in 3.04 ?

Thanks in anticipation
