PRB: TITLEBAR = 0 Does Not Carry Over from Base Class (190870)

SYMPTOMS

When you subclass a form based on the Top-Level form class definition and the Top-Level form class TitleBar property is set to 0 (zero), the TitleBar property does not get implemented in the subclassed form.

RESOLUTION

To workaround this behavior, place "Desktop = .T." in the class definition code as shown in the MORE INFORMATION section.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

Create a .prg file.

Paste the following program into the .PRG file:

      PUBLIC x
      x=CREATEOBJECT("frmform")
      x.SHOW


      DEFINE CLASS frmform AS FORM
         ShowWindow = 2
         TitleBar = 0
         *Desktop = .T.  && Uncomment this property to hide the TitleBar.
         ADD OBJECT command1 AS CommandButton

         PROCEDURE command1.Click
            Thisform.Release
         ENDPROC

      ENDDEFINE

Save and run the .RRG

NOTE: The form appears with a TitleBar even though the TitleBar property is set to 0 (off) in the class definition.
