Hi,
what about this patch of mine? #77305 is about to fall off the queue. 3 weeks later, it's still ok AFAICT.
This will need another sweep in some future after somebody tests what happens in EXCLUSIVE mode about which MSDN says the pointer is set to null. I only tested SHARED mode with standard formats.
I've 2 patches in my queue that depend on this one: - indeed, no format suggestion in exclusive mode; - if all else fails, suggest GetFormatMix in shared mode
BTW, #77096 was superseded by something long committed.
