[Boost-users] Base Pointer member functions failure

Okay,
 
Call me stupid but I can't get this to work
 
class Base
{
    virtual const bool CheckFunc(const value& val ) const { return true;
}
}
 
class Derived1: public Base
{
}
 
class Derived2: public Base
{
}
 
// some where else in code
Derived1 dev1;
Derived2 dev2;
 
vector<Base *> vecBase;
vecBase.push_back( &dev1 );
vecBase.push_back( &dev2 );
 
value aVal;
vec<Base *> std::find_if( vecBase.begin(), vecBase.end(), boost::bind(
Base::CheckFunc, aVal ) );
 
I have tried a gazillion things a thought would work using mem_fun_ref
and such.  This ones get's me the closest I believe but I get a bunch of
qualifier to funcation type has no meaning warnings.  As well I get a
condiation expression of type 'overloaded-function is illegal.
 
I am using VS.Net 2003.  
 
Any ideas on what I am missing.  As well can I get my cake and eat it to
by making the CheckFunc virtual and have it resolve to the derived form?
 
 
TIA
