TITLE TREASURER
Report of Independent Accountants
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Oppenheimer Quest Capital Value Fund, Inc.
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Oppenheimer
Quest Capital Value Fund, Inc. for the year ended October 31, 1999, we
considered its internal control, including control activities for safeguarding
securities, in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of
expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the
requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on internal control.
The management of Oppenheimer Quest Capital Value Fund, Inc. is responsible for
establishing and maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this
responsibility, esti mates and judgments by management are required to assess
the expected benefits and related costs of controls. Generally, controls that
are relevant to an audit pertain to the entity's objective of preparing
financial statements for external purposes that are fairly presented in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Those controls include
the safeguarding of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.
Because of inherent limitations in internal control, errors or fraud may occur
and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of internal control to
future periods is subject to the risk that it may become inadequate because of
changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the design and operation may
deteriorate.
Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters
in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A
material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more
of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the
risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be
material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not
be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of
performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no matters involving
internal control and its operation, including controls for safeguarding
securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of
October 31, 1999.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of
Directors, management and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not
intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified
parties.

The Fund adjusts the classification of distributions to shareholders to reflect
the differences between financial statement amounts and distributions determined
in accordance with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the year ended
October 31, 1999, amounts have been reclassified to reflect a decrease in
additional paid-in capital of $574,980, a decrease in overdistributed net
investment income of $574,885, and an increase in accumulated net realized gain
on investments of $95.
