I do not understand why you have replaced the #import-s with "libid:" with absolute file paths.

Use the #import-s precisely as in our example. If that gives a problem, tell me what the problem is.

Best regards

For information about the libraries that need to be referenced, see e.g.:

- opclabs.doc-that.com/files/onlinedocs/QuickOpc/Latest/User%2...ame.html#COM%20Components.html
- opclabs.doc-that.com/files/onlinedocs/QuickOpc/Latest/User%2...pment%20Libraries%20(COM).html
- opclabs.doc-that.com/files/onlinedocs/QuickOpc/Latest/User%2...0the%20Components%20(COM).html
- opclabs.doc-that.com/files/onlinedocs/QuickOpc/Latest/User%2...nts%20for%20OPC%20Classic.html

In C++, after having installed QuickOPC, you basically just need to add the #import directives to the code, as shown in the code samples.

For example, from EasyOPCDADemoDlg.h file in the EasyOPCDADemo project:

#import "libid:BED7F4EA-1A96-11D2-8F08-00A0C9A6186D"    // mscorlib
using namespace mscorlib;
 
#import "System.Drawing.tlb"
using namespace System_Drawing;
 
#import "System.Windows.Forms.tlb"
using namespace System_Windows_Forms;
 
// OpcLabs.BaseLib
#import "libid:ecf2e77d-3a90-4fb8-b0e2-f529f0cae9c9" \
	rename("value", "Value")
using namespace OpcLabs_BaseLib;
 
#import "libid:A0D7CA1E-7D8C-4D31-8ECB-84929E77E331"    // OpcLabs.BaseLibForms
using namespace OpcLabs_BaseLibForms;
 
// OpcLabs.EasyOpcClassic
#import "libid:1F165598-2F77-41C8-A9F9-EAF00C943F9F" \
	rename("machineName", "MachineName") \
	rename("serverClass", "ServerClass")
using namespace OpcLabs_EasyOpcClassic;
 
#import "libid:E15CAAE0-617E-49C6-BB42-B521F9DF3983"    // OpcLabs.EasyOpcUA
using namespace OpcLabs_EasyOpcUA;
 
#import "libid:2C654FA0-6CD6-496D-A64E-CE2D2925F388"    // OpcLabs.EasyOpcForms
using namespace OpcLabs_EasyOpcForms;

Regarding connection to your specific server, I suggest that you start by determining its ProgID and then an ItemID of some "tag" in the server, and modify our example(s) with this information.
