PRODUCT :Microsoft FoxPro
PROD/VER:WINDOWS:6.0
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:kbservicepack kbvfp600 kbVS600sp2 kbVS600SP1 kbVS600sp3fix

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 6.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

A form created with code or through the Form Designer does not retain changes to
the ColumnWidths property of a list box or combo box when a form's ScaleMode
property equals 0-Foxels.

RESOLUTION
==========

Set the ScaleMode of the form to 3-Pixels.

STATUS
======

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

This bug was corrected in Visual Studio 6.0 Service Pack 3. For more information
about Visual Studio service packs, please see the following articles in the

MORE INFORMATION
================

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------

1. Create a form and place a list box or combo box on it.

2. Change the ScaleMode of the form to 0-Foxels.

3. Click on the list box or combo box, and change the ColumnCount to 3.

4. Change the Columnwidths to 1,10,15 and move off the ColumnWidths property
   item in the Property sheet. Note that the ColumnWidths values revert to 1,1,1
   as soon you move off the ColumnWidths property. All the values in the
   ColumnWidths property revert to the first numeric value in the list. For
   instance, 15,20,25 would become 15,15,15 after moving off the ColumnWidths
   property.
