PRODUCT :Microsoft FoxPro
PROD/VER:WINDOWS:6.0
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:kbMiscTools kbvfp600 kbvfp600bug kbVS600sp3fix kbGrpDSFox

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

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

SYMPTOMS
========

The Installed Controls folder in the Component Gallery is designed to display
the ActiveX controls that are currently installed on the system. The contents of
this folder are determined by querying the system registry for installed ActiveX
controls. Due to the nature of this folder, the user should not be allowed to
manually add items to it. However, it is possible to add non-ActiveX control
items to this folder using drag-and-drop.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products 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 Microsoft Knowledge Base:

MORE INFORMATION

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

2. Select the ActiveX Catalog, select the Controls folder, and then select the
   Installed Controls folder.

3. Select the Visual FoxPro Catalog.

4. Drag the Visual FoxPro Catalog and drop it on the Installed Controls folder.

Note that a copy of the Visual FoxPro Catalog is erroneously added to the
Installed Controls folder.
