The problem seems to be building the libs that ARDB requires.  The
XSLT and XML libs plus the wxWidgets libs.  There are pre built
version out there on the net but they use different Visual C run
times.  Is there any easy way to remove the XML handling from ARDB?  I
have not looked at this part of the source code to hard.  If I can
remove it for now then I only have to worry about the wxWidgets to
start with.

That is what is putting me off trying to roll my own in my current
language of choice ( C# ).  Also I would hate to see all your hard
work go to waste.
