Summary:
The icon titles of two minimized MDI Child controls will overlap when
they are positioned close to each other on a form. Clicking with the
mouse on one of the icons will activate its Control menu but will not
bring its title to the foreground until you click on the icon again.
This behavior is different than the icons for minimized applications
on the Windows 3.0 desktop.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be problem with the MDI Child custom
control supplied with Microsoft Professional Toolkit for Microsoft
Visual Basic programming system version 1.0 for Windows.

Steps to Reproduce Problem
--------------------------
1. In the Visual Basic 1.0 programming environment, choose Add File
from the File menu, and select the MDICHILD.VBX custom control.
2. Click on the MDI Child tool in the Toolbox to select the MDI Child
control.
3. Place an MDI Child control on the form.
4. Place a second MDI Child control on the form.
5. From the Run menu, choose Start to run the application.
6. Minimize both MDI child windows by clicking the Minimize button in the
upper right corner of each child window.
7. Click and drag the icon for one of the MDI child windows to
position it so that the title overlaps the other icon.
8. Click on the icon of the MDI child window that is on the bottom.
The control box for that icon will pop up, but the title remains
underneath the other icon title. Clicking a second time on the same
icon will close the Control-menu box and bring the title for that icon
to the foreground.
