PART I

Item 1. Business

The Registrant, InLand Capital Fund, L.P. (the "Partnership"), is a limited
partnership formed on June 21, 1991 pursuant to the Delaware Revised Uniform
Limited Partnership Act, to invest in multiple parcels of land on an all-cash
basis. The Partnership intends to engage in a number of preliminary development
activities with the objective of maximizing the resale value of the land
parcels. On December 13, 1991, the Partnership commenced an Offering of 60,000
Limited Partnership Units ("Units") at $1,000 per Unit, pursuant to a
Registration Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. The
Offering terminated on August 23, 1993, with total sales of 32,399.28 Units, at
$1,000 per Unit, resulting in $32,399,282 in gross offering proceeds, not
including the General Partner's capital contribution of $500. All of the
holders of these Units have been admitted to the Partnership. Inland Real
Estate Investment Corporation is the General Partner. The Limited Partners of
the Partnership will share in their portion of benefits of ownership of the
Partnership's real property investments according to the number of Units held.
As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership has repurchased a total of 47.17 Units
for $45,967 from various Limited Partners through the Unit Repurchase Program.
Under this program, Limited Partners may under certain circumstances have their
Units repurchased for an amount equal to their Invested Capital.

The Partnership is engaged in the business of real estate investment. A
presentation of information about industry segments would not be material to an
understanding of the Partnership's business taken as a whole.

The Partnership acquired fee ownership of the following real property
investments:

Reference is made to Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of
this Annual Report) for additional descriptions of the Partnership's real
property investments.

The Partnership purchased, primarily on an all-cash basis, eighteen parcels of
undeveloped land and one building and is engaged in the rezoning and resale of
the parcels. All of the investments were made in the collar counties
surrounding the Chicago metropolitan area. The anticipated holding period of
the land is approximately two to seven years from the completion of the land
portfolio acquisitions. As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership has had
multiple sales transactions through which it has disposed of the building and
approximately thirty-six acres of the approximately 3,302 acres originally
owned.

The General Partner anticipates that land purchased by the Partnership will
produce sufficient income to pay property taxes, insurance and other
miscellaneous expenses, with surplus funds, if any, to be retained in the
working capital reserve for pre-development activities. Income is expected to
be derived from leases to farmers or from other activities compatible with the
the Partnership's business plan for land parcels. Although the General Partner
believes that leasing the Partnership's land will generate sufficient revenues
to pay these expenses, there can be no assurance that this will in fact occur.
However, the General Partner has agreed to make a Supplemental Capital
Contribution to the Partnership if and to the extent that real estate taxes and
insurance payable with respect to the Partnership's land during a given year
exceed the revenue earned by the Partnership from leasing its land during such
year. Any Supplemental Capital Contribution will be repaid only after Limited
Partners have received, over the life of the Partnership, a return of their
Original Capital plus the 15% Cumulative Return. All of the parcels purchased
by the Partnership consist of land which generates revenue from farming or
other leasing activities. It is not expected that the Partnership will generate
cash distributions to the partners from farm leases or other activities.

The Partnership had no employees during 1997.

The terms of transactions between the Partnership and Affiliates of the General
Partner of the Partnership are set forth in Item 11 below and Note 3 of the
Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of this Annual Report) to which reference
is hereby made for a description of such terms and transactions.

The Partnership has reviewed its current computer systems and does not
anticipate any future problems relating to the year 2000.


Item 2. Properties

The Partnership owns directly the parcels of land referred to in Item 1 and in
Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of this Annual Report) to
which reference is hereby made for a description of said parcels.


Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Partnership is not subject to any material pending legal proceedings.


Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders during 1997.


PART II


Item 5. Market for the Partnership's Limited Partnership Units and Related
Security Holder Matters

As of December 31, 1997, there were 2,671 holders of Units of the Partnership.
There is no public market for Units nor is it anticipated that any public
market for Units will develop.

Although the Partnership has established a Unit Repurchase Program, funds for
repurchase of Units are limited. Reference is made to "Unit Repurchase Program"
on page 61 of the Prospectus of the Partnership dated December 13, 1991, as
amended, which is incorporated herein by reference. As of December 31, 1997,
the Partnership had approximately $153,000 available for the repurchase of
Units.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Certain statements in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this annual report on Form
10-K constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Federal
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
which may cause the Partnership's actual results, performance, or achievements
to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements
expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include,
among other things, federal, state or local regulations; adverse changes in
general economic or local conditions; uninsured losses; and potential conflicts
of interest between the Partnership and its Affiliates, including the General
Partner.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On December 13, 1991, the Partnership commenced an Offering of 60,000 Limited
Partnership Units ("Units") at $1,000 per Unit, pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. The Offering terminated
on August 23, 1993, with total sales of 32,399.28 Units, at $1,000 per Unit,
resulting in $32,399,282 in gross offering proceeds, not including the General
Partner's capital contribution of $500. All of the holders of these Units have
been admitted to the Partnership. The Limited Partners of the Partnership will
share in their portion of benefits of ownership of the Partnership's real
property investments according to the number of Units held.

The Partnership used $25,945,989 of gross offering proceeds to purchase, on an
all-cash basis, eighteen parcels of land and one building. These investments
include the payment of the purchase price, acquisition fees and acquisition
costs of such properties. One of the parcels was purchased during 1992, one
during 1993, fifteen during 1994 and one during 1995. As of December 31, 1997,
the Partnership has had multiple sales transactions through which it has
disposed of the building and approximately thirty-six acres of the 3,302 acres
originally owned. As of December 31, 1997, cumulative distributions to the
Limited Partners have totaled $1,646,334 (which represents a return of Invested
Capital, as defined in the Partnership Agreement). Through December 31, 1997,
the Partnership has used $3,100,951 of working capital reserve for rezoning and
other activities and such amount is included in investment properties.

The Partnership's capital needs and resources will vary depending upon a number
of factors, including the extent to which the Partnership conducts rezoning and
other activities relating to utility access, the installation of roads,
subdivision and/or annexation of land to a municipality, changes in real estate
taxes affecting the Partnership's land, and the amount of revenue received from
leasing. As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership owns, in whole or in part, all
eighteen of its original parcels, the majority of which are leased to local
farmers and are generating sufficient cash flow from farm leases to cover
property taxes and insurance.







-7-



At December 31, 1997, the Partnership had cash, cash equivalents and investments
in marketable securities of $479,252, of which approximately $153,000 is
reserved for the repurchase of Units through the Unit Repurchase Program. The
remaining $326,252 is available, upon maturity, to be used for Partnership
expenses and liabilities, cash distributions to partners, and other activities
with respect to some or all of its land parcels. The Partnership plans to
maximize its parcel sales effort in anticipation of rising land values.

The Partnership plans to enhance the value of its land through pre-development
activities such as rezoning, annexation and land planning. The Partnership has
already been successful in, or is in the process of pre-development activity on
a majority of the Partnership's land investments. Parcel 2, annexed to the
village of McHenry and zoned for a business park, has improvements underway and
sites are being marketed to potential buyers, of which nine of the 190 lots were
sold during 1997. Parcel 4, zoned for a variety of business uses, has
improvements underway and sites are being marketed to potential buyers, of which
one site consisting of .87 acres was sold to a hotel chain on June 6, 1997 and
another site consisting of 1.435 acres was sold to a combination gas
station/convenient store on August 12, 1997. (See Note 4 of the Notes to
Financial Statements.) Parcel 6, annexed to the village of DeKalb and zoned for
twenty-five large, residential lots, has completed the road into the subdivision
and the lots are being marketed to homebuilders and individuals. Parcels 15 and
16 have been annexed to the village of Huntley and zoned for residential and
commercial development.

Results of Operations

As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership owned eighteen parcels of land
consisting of approximately 3,266 acres. Of the 3,266 acres owned, approximately
2,834 acres are tillable and leased to local farmers and are generating
sufficient cash flow to cover property taxes, insurance and other miscellaneous
property expenses. The sale of investment property income and cost of investment
property sold for the year ended December 31, 1997 is the result of the sale of
.87 acres of Parcel 4 on June 6, 1997, the sale of 1.435 acres of Parcel 4 on
August 12, 1997, the sale of 1.929 acres of Parcel 2 on September 2, 1997 and
the sale of 6.7516 acres of Parcel 2 on November 7, 1997. The sale of
investment properties income and the cost of investment properties sold recorded
for the year ended December 31, 1995 is a result of the sale of the house and
outbuildings located on approximately seven acres of Parcel 10 and the sale of
17.742 acres of Parcel 2 on April 21, 1995 and August 2, 1995, respectively.

The increase in rental income for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, is due to the annual increase in
lease amounts from tenants. The increase in land operating expenses to non-
affiliates for the year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to the year ended
December 31, 1996, is due primarily to an increase in real estate taxes. The
decrease in depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, is due to the sale of the house
and outbuildings located on Parcel 10 during April 1995.

Interest income decreased for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, due primarily to the Partnership
utilizing its working capital reserve to fund pre-development activity on its
land parcels.



-8-



The increase in other income for year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to
the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, is due primarily to the Partnership
receiving a non-refundable deposit on a land sale which did not occur.

Professional services to non-affiliates increased for the years ended December
31, 1997 and 1996, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, due to an
increase in legal services relative to carrying out the Partnership's business
plan.

General and administrative expenses to Affiliates decreased for the year ended
December 31, 1997, as compared to the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
due to decreases in data processing and investor services expenses.

Marketing expenses to Affiliates decreased for the years ended December 31, 1997
and 1996, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, and marketing
expenses to non-affiliates increased for the years ended December 31, 1997 and
1996, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, due to decreases in
expenses relating to marketing and advertising the Partnership's land
investments for sale paid to Affiliates and increases in advertising and travel
expenses relating to marketing the land portfolio to prospective purchasers paid
to non-affiliates.

Inflation

Inflation in future periods may cause capital appreciation of the Partnership's
investments in land. Rental income levels (from leases to new tenants or
renewals of existing tenants) are expected to rise and fall in accordance with
normal agricultural market conditions and may or may not be affected by
inflation. To date, the operations of the Partnership have not been
significantly affected by inflation.

INLAND CAPITAL FUND, L.P.
(a limited partnership)

Notes to Financial Statements

For the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995


(1) Organization and Basis of Accounting

InLand Capital Fund, L.P. (the "Partnership") was organized on June 21, 1991 by
the filing of a Certificate of Limited Partnership under the Revised Uniform
Limited Partnership Act of the State of Delaware. On December 13, 1991, the
Partnership commenced an Offering of 60,000 Limited Partnership Units pursuant
to a Registration under the Securities Act of 1933. The Amended and Restated
Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") provides for
Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation to be the General Partner. The
Offering terminated on August 23, 1993, with total sales of 32,399.28 Units, at
$1,000 per Unit, resulting in $32,399,282 in gross offering proceeds, not
including the General Partner's capital contribution of $500. All of the
holders of these Units have been admitted to the Partnership. The Limited
Partners of the Partnership will share in their portion of benefits of
ownership of the Partnership's real property investments according to the
number of Units held. As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership has repurchased
and canceled a total of 47.17 Units for $45,967 from various Limited Partners
through the Units Repurchase Program. Under this program, Limited Partners may
under certain circumstances have their Units repurchased for an amount equal to
their Invested Capital.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Deferred organization costs are amortized over a 60-month period. Offering
costs have been offset against the Limited Partners' capital accounts.

The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Such
investments consisted of commercial paper with interest rates ranging from
5.65% to 5.80% and aggregating $260,000 at December 31, 1997 issued by LaSalle
National Corporation with final maturities ranging from January 2, 1998 to
January 5, 1998. Such investments consisted of commercial paper with interest
rates ranging from 5.25% to 5.375% and aggregating $560,000 at December 31,
1996 issued by LaSalle National Corporation with final maturities ranging from
January 3, 1997 to January 21, 1997.

INLAND CAPITAL FUND, L.P.
(a limited partnership)

Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)


Investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or more are
considered to be investments in marketable securities. Such investment of
$174,800 at December 31, 1997 consisted of commercial paper with an interest
rate of 5.46% issued by Manufacturers Bank with a final maturity of May 4,
1998. Such investments consisted of commercial paper with interest rates
ranging from 4.75% to 5.50% and aggregating $1,077,802 at December 31, 1996
issued by three banks with final maturities ranging from January 14, 1997 to
April 30, 1997.

For vacant land parcels and parcels with insignificant buildings and
improvements, the Partnership uses the area method of allocation, which
approximates the relative sales method of allocation, whereby a per acre price
is used as the standard allocation method for land purchases and sales. The
total cost of the parcel is divided by the total number of acres to arrive at a
per acre price. For parcels with significant buildings and improvements (Parcel
10, described in Note 4), the Partnership recorded the buildings and
improvements at a cost based upon the appraised value at the date of
acquisition. Buildings and improvements were depreciated using the straight-
line method of depreciation over a useful life of thirty years. Repair and
maintenance expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Significant
improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of"
("SFAS 121") requires the Partnership to record an impairment loss on its
property to be held for investment whenever its carrying value cannot be fully
recovered through estimated undiscounted future cash flows from their
operations and sale. The amount of the impairment loss to be recognized would
be the difference between the property's carrying value and the property's
estimated fair value. The adoption of SFAS 121 did not have any effect on the
Partnership's financial position, results of operations or liquidity. As of
December 31, 1997, the Partnership has not recognized any such impairment.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings per Share" was
adopted by the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 1997 and has been
applied to all prior earnings periods presented in the financial statements.
The Partnership has no dilutive securities.

The Partnership is required to pay a withholding tax to the Internal Revenue
Service with respect to a Partner's allocable share of the Partnership's
taxable net income, if the Partner is a foreign person. The Partnership will
first pay the withholding tax from the distributions to any foreign person, and
to the extent that the tax exceeds the amount of distributions withheld, or if
there have been no distributions to withhold, the excess will be accounted for
as a distribution to the foreign person. Future withholding tax payments will
be made every April, June, September and December.

Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)


No provision for Federal income taxes has been made as the liability for such
taxes is that of the Partners rather than the Partnership.

The Partnership records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Federal
income tax return has been prepared from such records after making appropriate
adjustments, if any, to reflect the Partnership's accounts as adjusted for
Federal income tax reporting purposes. Such adjustments are not recorded on the
records of the Partnership. The net effect of these items is summarized as
follows:
1997 1996
------------------------- ------------------------

Net income per Limited
Partnership Unit, basic
and diluted............... 32.94 32.94 2.88 2.88

The net income per Limited Partnership Unit is based upon the weighted average
number of Units of 32,368.73 and 32,388.75 during 1997 and 1996, respectively.


(2) Partnership Agreement

The Partnership Agreement defines the allocation of profits and losses, and
available cash. If and to the extent that real estate taxes and insurance
payable with respect to the Partnership's land during a given year exceed
revenues of the Partnership, the General Partner will make a Supplemental
Capital Contribution of such amount to the Partnership to ensure that it has
sufficient funds to make such payments.

Distributions of Net Sale Proceeds will be allocated between the General Partner
and the Limited Partners based upon both an aggregate overall return to the
Limited Partners and a separate return with respect to each parcel of land
purchased by the Partnership.

INLAND CAPITAL FUND, L.P.
(a limited partnership)

Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)


Profits and losses from operations (other than capital transactions) will be
allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner. The net
gain from a sale of Partnership properties is first allocated among the Partners
in proportion to the negative balances, if any, in their respective capital
accounts. Thereafter, except as provided below, net gain is allocated to the
General Partner in an amount equal to the proceeds distributable to the General
Partner from such sale and the balance of any net gain is allocated to the
Limited Partners. If the amount of net gain realized from a sale is less than
the amount of cash distributed to the General Partner from such sale, the
Partnership will allocate income or gain to the General Partner in an amount
equal to the excess of the cash distributed to the General Partner with respect
to such sale as quickly as permitted by law. Any net loss from a sale will be
allocated to the Limited Partners.

As a general rule, Net Sale Proceeds will be distributed 90% to the Limited
Partners and 10% to the General Partner until the Limited Partners have received
from Net Sale Proceeds (i) a return of their Original Capital plus (ii) a
noncompounded cumulative preferred return of 15% on their Invested Capital.
However, with respect to each parcel of land, the General Partner's 10% share
will be subordinated until the Limited Partners receive a return of the Original
Capital attributed to such parcel ("Parcel Capital") plus a 6% per annum
noncompounded cumulative preferred return thereon.

At the conclusion of Partnership operations, after all Parcels have been sold,
if Limited Partners have not received the return of their Original Capital, plus
a 6% annual, noncompounded return on their Invested Capital, the General Partner
has agreed to rebate to the Partnership, for distribution to the Limited
Partners, sales proceeds received by the General Partner in an amount equal to
the deficiency in the Limited Partners' return, plus 6% noncompounded annual
interest. The amount of this rebate by the General Partner, exclusive of the 6%
noncompounded annual interest to be paid on the rebate, will not exceed the
amount of sales proceeds received by the General Partner over the life of the
Partnership.

After the amounts described in items (i) and (ii) above and any previously
subordinated distributions to the General Partner have been paid, and the amount
of any Supplemental Capital Contributions have been repaid to the General
Partner, subsequent distributions shall be paid 75% to the Limited Partners and
25% to the General Partner without considering Parcel Capital. If, after all Net
Sale Proceeds have been distributed, the General Partner has received more than
25% of all Net Sale Proceeds (exclusive of distributions made to the Limited
Partners to return their Original Capital), the General Partner shall contribute
to the Partnership for distribution to the Limited Partners an amount equal to
such excess.

Any distributions from Net Sales Proceeds at a time when Invested Capital is
greater than zero shall be deemed applied first to reduction of such Invested
Capital before application to payment of any deficiency in the 15% Cumulative
Preferred Return.
