Procedure Name Remaining in Procedure Combo Box After Deletion

Summary:

If you delete the SUB and END SUB (or FUNCTION and END FUNCTION) lines

in a user-defined procedure and leave one or more blank lines in

that procedure's code window, the procedure name remains in the combo

box containing the procedure names (hereafter referred to as the

procedure combo box).

Also, if you delete the SUB and END SUB lines for a standard Visual

Basic event procedure and you leave one or more blank lines, the code

will remain blank for that procedure instead of returning to the

standard SUB and END SUB syntax for that event.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Visual Basic

programming system version 1.0 for Windows. We are researching this

problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.

Steps to Reproduce Problem

--------------------------

1. From the File menu, select New Project (ALT, F, N).

2. Double-click on the default form (Form1).

3. From the General Declarations section of Form1, do the

following:

a. Type "Sub MySub" (without the quotation marks) and press ENTER.

b. Insert a least one blank line between the SUB ... END SUB

statements.

c. Delete just the statements Sub MySub () and End Sub, and leave

at least one blank line between them.

The procedure name MySub will still appear in the procedure combo box;

however, when you switch to the code window for the procedure, it will

appear to be empty. The blank line that was added in step 3.b. above

will still be present.

To remove the procedure name MySub from the procedure combo box,

delete all of the blank space within the code window.
