About This Site

The OPC Programmers' Connection website was set up in early 1997 to meet the needs of software developers working with the various OPC (formerly OLE for Process Control) specifications.

OPCconnect.com is operated by Mike Dillamore, a software engineer with over fifteen years experience of the control and automation industries.

This site is not endorsed by OPC Foundation, which owns all OPC trademarks.
