BUG: Setting Grid's MousePointer Property to 14 Causes Error

 Last reviewed: April 25, 1997
Article ID: Q155933
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, versions 3.0, 3.0b, 5.0, 5.0a

SYMPTOMS

When you change the MousePointer property of a Grid object to 14-Arrow, Visual FoxPro produces the following error message: 

   Expression evaluated to an illegal value.

WORKAROUND

Rather than changing the MousePointer property of the Grid object to 14- Arrow, choose 1-Arrow. The properties are the same, but 1-Arrow does not produce an error message.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Create a new form and add a Grid object to it.

  2. Click the MousePointer property of the Grid object and change it to 14-Arrow. The error message "Expression evaluated to an illegal value" appears.

  3. Change the MousePointer property to 1-Arrow. The error does not occur.
