LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide you with this annual report for the Dreyfus
Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund, Inc. For the period ended November 30, 1994,
the yield provided by your Fund was 2.64%. After taking into account the effect
of compounding, the effective yield was 2.67%.* Dividends of approximately
$.03 per share paid during the period were exempt from Federal and Ohio
personal income taxes.** Compared to its short-term taxable alternatives,
your Fund continued to provide an attractive after-tax return throughout the
period for the Ohio investor.
Our last letter recapped the series of Federal Reserve Board moves
throughout the first half of 1994_moves designed to reach a more neutral
monetary policy stance in response to continued economic expansion. With
further evidence of economic strength in the latter half of the year, the Fed
continued its move toward tighter policy. In two successive moves in August
and November, the Fed increased rates an additional 175 basis points. By
November 15, the last tightening move, total monetary policy actions taken in
1994 increased the Discount Rate from 3.00% to 4.75%; in addition, the
Federal Funds rate moved from 3.00% in February to 5.50% in November.
Throughout the year, rates on municipal money market funds increased in
response to the higher rates. Over the period of tightening, the average
yield for all tax-free money funds increased 122 basis points, to 3.02%.
One of the most significant events which affected the short-term
municipal market was the filing for bankruptcy in the second half of the year
by Orange County, California. While your Ohio Fund did not hold any direct
obligations of Orange County, the uncertainty which existed at the time of
the County's disclosure created some temporary market weakness. In light of
the uncertainty, coupled with the potential for additional Federal Reserve
action in late January, we chose to invest most available proceeds in the
short end of the yield curve. Throughout this process, the securities
suitable for investment were those that met our high quality standards and
that provided a balance of income and liquidity consistent with our
conservative investment philosophy. We will continue to monitor these
developments and will adjust our strategy as changes in the market warrant.
We have included a current Statement of Investments and recent
financial statements for your review and look forward to serving your
investment needs in the future.
Very truly yours,
(logo signature)

Director, Municipal Portfolio Management
The Dreyfus Corporation

* Effective yield is based upon dividends declared daily and reinvested
monthly.
** Some income may be subject to the Federal Alternative Minimum Tax
(AMT) for certain shareholders.

DREYFUS OHIO MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1_SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940
("Act") as a non-diversified open-end management investment company. Dreyfus
Service Corporation, until August 24, 1994, acted as the exclusive
distributor of the Fund's shares, which are sold to the public without a
sales charge. Dreyfus Service Corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The
Dreyfus Corporation ("Manager"). Effective August 24, 1994, the Manager
became a direct subsidiary of Mellon Bank, N.A.
On August 24, 1994, Premier Mutual Fund Services, Inc. (the
"Distributor") was engaged as the Fund's distributor. The Distributor,
located at One Exchange Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02109, is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Institutional Services, Inc., a provider of mutual fund
administration services, the parent company of which is Boston Institutional
Group, Inc.
It is the Fund's policy to maintain a continuous net asset value per
share of $1.00; the Fund has adopted certain investment, portfolio valuation
and dividend and distribution policies to enable it to do so. There is no
assurance, however, that the Fund will be able to maintain a stable net asset
value of $1.00.
(A) PORTFOLIO VALUATION: Investments are valued at amortized cost,
which has been determined by the Fund's Board of Directors to represent the
fair value of the Fund's investments.
(B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME: Securities
transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted
for amortization of premiums and, original issue discounts on investments, is
earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. Realized
gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified
cost basis.
The Fund follows an investment policy of investing primarily in
municipal obligations of one state. Economic changes affecting the state and
certain of its public bodies and municipalities may affect the ability of
issuers within the state to pay interest on, or repay principal of, municipal
obligations held by the Fund.
(C) DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Fund to
declare dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid
monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gain, if any, are normally
declared and paid annually, but the Fund may make distributions on a more
frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code. To the extent that net realized capital gain can be offset by
capital loss carryovers, if any, it is the policy of the Fund not to
distribute such gain.
(D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Fund to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company, which can distribute tax exempt
dividends, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code, and to make distributions of income and net realized capital
gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income and
excise taxes.
At November 30, 1994, the cost of investments for Federal income tax
purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting
purposes (see the Statement of Investments).
The Fund has an unused capital loss carryover of approximately
$48,000 available for Federal income tax purposes to be applied against
future net securities profits, if any realized subsequent to November 30,
1994. If not applied, the carryover expires in fiscal 2002.
DREYFUS OHIO MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2_MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES:
(A) Pursuant to a management agreement ("Agreement") with the
Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .50 of 1% of
the average daily value of the Fund's net assets and is payable monthly. The
Agreement provides for an expense reimbursement from the Manager should the
Fund's aggregate expenses, exclusive of taxes, brokerage, interest on
borrowings and extraordinary expenses, exceed the expense limitation of any
state having jurisdiction over the Fund for any full fiscal year. However, the
Manager had undertaken from December 1, 1993 through October 4, 1994 to
waive receipt of the management fee payable to it by the Fund, and thereafter
had undertaken through January 30, 1995, to reduce the management fee paid by
the Fund, to the extent that the Fund's aggregate expenses (excluding certain
expenses as described above) exceeded specified annual percentages of the
Fund's average daily net assets. The reduction in management fee, pursuant to
the undertakings amounted to $308,073 for the year ended November 30, 1994.
The Manager has currently undertaken from January 31, 1995 through
March 31, 1995, or until such time as the net assets of the Fund exceed $100
million, regardless of whether they remain at that level, to waive receipt of
management fee paid by the Fund in excess of an annual rate of .20 of 1% of
the Fund's average daily net assets.
(B) Pursuant to the Fund's Shareholder Services Plan, the Fund
reimburses Dreyfus Service Corporation an amount not to exceed an annual rate
of .25 of 1% of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets for
servicing shareholder accounts. The services provided may include personal
services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder
inquiries regarding the Fund and providing reports and other information, and
services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. During the year
ended November 30, 1994, the Fund was charged an aggregate of $33,951
pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.
(C) Prior to August 24, 1994, certain officers and directors of the
Fund were "affiliated persons," as defined in the Act, of the Manager and/or
Dreyfus Service Corporation. Each director who is not an "affiliated person"
receives an annual fee of $1,000.
