BUG: Multiline TextBoxes Show Lines When Scrolling Up

ID: Q180629

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows CE Toolkit for Visual Basic 6.0
Microsoft Windows CE Toolkit for Visual Basic 5.0

SYMPTOMS

Scrolling up in a multiline TextBox control using the UP ARROW key shows lines drawn on the inside of the control. Note that this happens only in emulation and that ARROW keys are not functional for scrolling within a TextBox on a remote device.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

Create a new Windows CE (HPC) Project in Visual Basic 5.0. Form1 is created by default.

After the default Form1 appears, add a TextBox control to Form1.

Set the Height property of the TextBox to 1000.

Set the Multiline property of the TextBox to True.

Press the F5 key to run the project.

When the project is up and running, type some text into the TextBox control until it starts to scroll the control.

Using the UP ARROW key, scroll up in the TextBox control. When the text is scrolled, lines will appear beneath the text that is redrawn.
