Visual Basic 4.0's Data Control does not send notifications to its clients when

list of fields will now show up in the Listfield property of the DBList control.

beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new

Steps to Reproduce Problem
--------------------------
1. Add a Data control and a DBList control to a new form in a new project in
Visual Basic 4.0.
2. Set the Database name property of the DataControl to biblio.mdb and the
RecordSource property of the Data control to the Authors table.
3. Set the Datasource property of the DBList to Data1 and the ListField property
to author.
4. Change the Recordsource property of DataControl to the Titles table.
5. Go back to the DBList control, and click the pick list button of the
Listfield property. You will not see the new fields for the new table.
NOTE: The Remote DataControl works correctly in this respect.
