Summary:

If you add a form to a project and that form contains a control with

the same name as an existing form, Windows 3.0 will display an

"Unrecoverable Application Error" (UAE) message when you try to view

the form you just added.

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

1.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information

here as it becomes available.

message.
