BUG: Treeview Control ItemTips Fail on Windows NT 4.0Last reviewed: August 13, 1997Article ID: Q165768 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSWhen you install the Treeview control with Microsoft applications or development tools released after January 1, 1997, it does not show ItemTips correctly when the control is on a form running on Windows NT 4.0.
CAUSEThe ItemTips feature of the version of the Treeview control that comes with the most recent version of Comctl32.ocx is incompatible with Windows NT version 4.0 Workstation and 4.0 Server. The other features of the control operate as expected, and the ItemTips feature works when the Visual FoxPro form resides on Windows 95. NOTE: This behavior does not occur if you use Comctl32.ocx version 1.0.2908 that is shipped with Visual FoxPro 5.0.
RESOLUTIONIf the Visual FoxPro for Windows application must have ItemTips the developer can remove the version of the control that is on the system and replace it with the version that came on the Visual FoxPro version 5.0 CD-ROM. This probably will be unsatisfactory if you need to distribute the application to users running on Windows NT 4.0 who also have installed other applications that accompanied the newer version of the Comctl32.ocx. On those systems the Setup program will not replace the later version of the control with the one distributed with the Visual FoxPro application.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this bug and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
