Released on March 19, 1997 as part of Visual C++ 5.0, this is the latest and greatest MFC release. The only new feature added to this release is IntelliMouse support which evidently took the better part of an afternoon for .B ekiM to bang out. This release also includes another round of bug fixes and I would say is by far the most stable MFC since 3.2 (this is due to all of the new features added, which is understandable).
Unfortunately, we now have a situation where the MFC release doesn't match VC++ - everybody on the newsgroups thinks they are using MFC 5.0, which doesn't exist. Help me set them straight!!
