PRB: DblClick() Event Doesn't Fire with Citrix MetaFrame ICA Client (286785)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 3.0
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 3.0b
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 5.0
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 5.0a
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 6.0
This article was previously published under Q286785

SYMPTOMS

Neither the DblClick() event of all Visual FoxPro (VFP) base controls, nor controls within the VFP integrated development environment (IDE) itself, respond when all of the following are true:
  • VFP, or an application that was created with VFP, is running on a Microsoft Windows 2000 server with Terminal Services installed.
  • The application is being used through a Terminal Services client session.
  • The Terminal Services client session is using Citrix MetaFrame ICA client software.
Users may need to triple-click in order to perform actions that normally require only a double-click.

RESOLUTION

The Microsoft Terminal Server client does not have this problem. If using the Microsoft client is not an option, however, Citrix has posted a hotfix that resolves this issue.

To locate this hotfix, browse to the following Web site

Citrix Solution Knowledge Base
http://knowledgebase.citrix.com

and search for the Document ID CTX805270. According to Citrix, applying this hotfix resolves a problem in which "... using Visual FoxPro and browsing a table, users had to triple-click on a Memo field to view it."

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

These steps assume the availability of a Windows Terminal Server computer that is running Citrix MetaFrame version 1.8 Service Pack 1 and the Citrix ICA client software. VFP should be installed on the server.

  1. Connect to a Windows Terminal Server that is running Citrix MetaFrame 1.8 SP1 using the Citrix ICA client.
  2. Open VFP, and then open a new form in the form designer.
  3. Double-click the form.
At this point, a code window usually opens and allows you to edit the FORM.Load event. However, in this case you do not see this window, because the designer does not respond properly to the double-click.
