Summary:

PROBLEM ID: QCW9110003

SYMPTOMS

When selecting a font in Microsoft QuickC for Windows (QC/Win)

version 1.0, some fonts may not always be available.

CAUSE

When certain applications are active, they register font resources

with Windows. If these applications are active when QC/Win is

started, the fonts may appear in the Fonts menu on the tool bar,

and in the Font menu under the Option command.

RESOLUTION

Close QC/Win before starting an application that will register new

font resources with Windows.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in QC/Win version 1.0.

We are researching this problem and will post new information here

as it becomes available.

More Information:

The CLOCK utility that ships with Windows 3.0 registers the font

Digital. If CLOCK is active when QC/Win is started, Digital will

appear in the Font menu. If CLOCK is terminated, Digital will no

longer be available; if DIGITAL is selected, a default font will be

set.
