Publisher 2.0a May GP Fault Due to Window Property Problem (107448)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server 3.1

This article was previously published under Q107448

SYMPTOMS

Microsoft Publisher 2.0a may generate a general protection (GP) fault because of the way Windows NT handles window properties. In Microsoft Windows 3.1, window properties are globally allocated. In Windows NT, they are allocated separately for each process. Because of this difference, some 16-bit Windows-based applications may exhibit problems under Windows NT.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1. This problem was corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1.
