The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Visual Basic programming system for Windows, version 2.0
SYMPTOMSIf you repeatedly select multiples of several controls on a form, and then attempt to set the Tag property of the controls to a long string, Visual Basic may display an out of memory error followed by a General Protection (GP) fault or Unrecoverable Application Error (UAE). This problem occurs only in the Visual Basic development environment (VB.EXE), not when running the application.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a bug in Microsoft Visual Basic version 2.0 for Windows. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Visual Basic version 3.0 for Windows.
MORE INFORMATIONTo reproduce the problem, repetitively select 30 or more controls and then enter a considerable amount of text for the Tag property. The likelihood of this problem occurring goes up with the number of controls selected and the amount of text assigned to the Tag property.
