Summary:

The Menu Design window, used to create pull-down menus for your Visual

Basic form(s), is a modal dialog box. Because the Menu Design window

is a modal dialog box, clicking on any other Visual Basic window when

the Menu Design window is visible should fail to transfer the focus

and should generate a beep to notify you that you cannot act outside

the dialog box.

However, clicking on the Visual Basic form for which the Menu design

window is opened does not generate a beep. All other Visual Basic

windows, such as the ToolBox, Color Palette, Project Window, and main

Visual Basic menu bar all respond with a beep when the Menu Design

window is active. Focus is maintained by the Menu Design window in

both cases.

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.
