Hello,

I have a weird situation in my application where selecting a certain menu item causes the application to crash when then associated dialog box is displayed! Strangely calling the same dialog box from the toolbar works perfectly! The crash also only happens on some computers and not others - it works fine on mine, but not my colleagues!

This bug has only started happening since v2.33 - I am currently using v2.42. The OS is Windows XP if it helps.

Any ideas?

Please tell whether this problem can be reproduced in any if the Prof-UIS samples? Could you formulate any difference between your dialog and simple About box dialog? Does your application perform some background actions during idle time processing or by timer? Does this problem appear in the release build only? Of course, if you send us a test project, that would be of great help to pinpoint and fix the problem quickly.

I found a solution which works but it is very odd!!!

Just out of curiousity I swapped the order of the menu items. It was originally Fetch, Delete, and Scheduler, which I changed to Fetch, Scheduler, and Delete. There is now absolutely no crashing whatsover - work that out!!!

I would say that this strongly points to a bug in Prof-Uis...

We have never encountered this bug and we never received information about it from library users. We would greatly appreciate if you let us a chance to find it in your application or in Prof-UIS. Unfortunately you did not answer our questions in our previous message in this thread.
