FP2000: Wizards may Add Pages to the Incorrect Window

ID: Q219677


The information in this article applies to:


SYMPTOMS

If you switch windows when you are using a wizard, the wizard adds files to last window you were working with, and not the window where you started the wizard.


CAUSE

Many of the wizards act upon the "current" active window. If you have switched windows and then returned to a wizard, the effects of the wizard may apply to the last active window (or web), instead of the window you used to start the wizard.


STATUS

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


MORE INFORMATION

When you work with wizards, it is important to complete the wizard before you change windows and make modifications to other files or webs.

If you must switch windows, complete or cancel the wizard. This way pages will not accidentally be added to the incorrect place.
