No, OpenDCL must be installed.

Also, no you can convert ODCL to DCL. There are a bunch more controls in ODCL that DCL doesn't support. Palettes, GRID, HTML, just to name a few, not to mention all the ActiveX controls.
Why is installing ODCL an issue?

You MAY want to install the latest MSI ... if so, revise accordingly :)
