Summary:

PROBLEM ID: WIN9012002

SYMPTOMS

In a Windows version 3.0 multiple document interface (MDI)

application, if the first MDI child is created minimized (as an

icon), the icon is painted but no title window is created or

painted. Subsequent MDI child windows are not affected.

RESOLUTION

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows version

3.0. To avoid this problem, create the first MDI child as an icon,

then hide and redisplay the window. Note: This approach will cause

a flash on the display.

This problem was corrected in Windows version 3.1.
