This article was previously published under Q140206 SYMPTOMS
Opening any menu of a program created in the 16-bit edition of Visual
Basic, version 4.0, containing the 16-bit OCX controls listed below or any
control using the 16-bit edition of the Microsoft OLE Control Developer's
Kit (CDK) shipping with Microsoft Visual C++ for Windows, version 1.5x
stops the system from painting to the screen when running Microsoft Windows
for Workgroup version 3.11. Any programs running in the background in
addition to the Visual Basic program still run, however, the screens of
these background programs are not repainted. Clicking near the menu to
close the menu resumes screen painting. This behavior only occurs when
running Windows for Workgroups 3.11 and is limited to the following
controls:
Custom Control Name File Name
