I had an e-mail conversation with Olaf about this and the position is as
follows:
After doing some work on the source (more comments, code beautifying etc.)
this .dll
(dhRichClient3.dll) will soon be open-sourced under LGPL
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Les...ublic_License).
That means you will have full control, that is if you have VB6 as you can't
compile .dll's with VBA.
Not sure if you have VB6, but definitely worth it to get that if you are
into any serious VBA developing.

Note that this licence scheme doesn't for example allow you to take out the
cCollection class and only
use that in your own dll. If you do that then you have to open up your own
..dll (or .exe) under LGPL.

Hello RBS,

Thanks. I see what you mean and I like the good intention.

But this is a matter of principle for me. Please see the first entry
of my "Excel - Dont's":
