Summary:

PROBLEM ID: WIN9103005

SYMPTOMS

When the DlgDirSelectComboBox function is used with a CBS_DROPDOWN

or CBS_DROPDOWNLIST style combo box, the function will cause the

debugging version of Windows to report a fatal exit (RIP). Under

enhanced mode, fatal exit 0x0280 is generated; under real and

standard modes, fatal exit 0x0007 is generated.

CAUSE

The code did not anticipate the hidden list box that is used in

these two styles of controls.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows version

3.0. This problem was corrected in Windows version 3.1.
