======================================================================

The information in this article applies to:

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

SYMPTOMS
========

When you use the Microsoft Intellimouse with top-level forms, you may receive
the following error message:

   Explorer has caused an invalid page fault in module
   <unknown>0000:0c2c9d90

CAUSE
=====

This occurs with versions of Point32.exe that shipped before IntelliPoint 3.0.

RESOLUTION
==========

Download the latest versions of the Microsoft Mouse drivers at the following
Microsoft Web site:

NOTE: It appears that this problem can also be resolved by removing the
Mswheel.exe file on systems with the older software.

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

To reproduce this behavior, you must have Microsoft Windows 98 installed, and a
version of Point32.exe prior to 3.00.0307. (Note that version 14 is prior to
3.00.0307.)

1. Create a new project (TopForm.pjx).

2. Paste the following code in a .prg file (TopForm.prg) in TopForm.pjx:

   loForm = CREATEOBJECT("frmTopLevel")
   loForm.Show()
   READ EVENTS

   DEFINE CLASS frmTopLevel AS form

      Height = 106
      Width = 264
      AutoCenter = .T.
      Caption = "Top-Level Form"
      Name = "frmTopLevel"
      ShowWindow = 2

      ADD OBJECT lblNote AS label WITH ;
         Caption = "Someone ought to open up a window!", ;
         Height = 17, ;
         Left = 36, ;
         Top = 24, ;
         Width = 209, ;
         Name = "lblNote"

      ADD OBJECT cmdExit AS commandbutton WITH ;
         Top = 60, ;
         Left = 156, ;
         Height = 27, ;
         Width = 84, ;
         Caption = "Exit", ;
         Name = "cmdExit"

      PROCEDURE QueryUnload
         CLEAR EVENTS
      ENDPROC

      PROCEDURE cmdExit.Click
         IF ThisForm.QueryUnload()
            ThisForm.Release()
         ENDif
      ENDPROC
   ENDDEFINE

3. Set TopForm.prg as the Main program, and build an EXE (TopForm.exe).

4. Run TopForm.exe from the Start Menu or Windows Explorer.

You may see the error message mentioned above.
