The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Edition, version 4.0 on the following platforms: MIPS, Power PC

SYMPTOMS

When two or more OLE Custom Controls are placed in a dialog inside Microsoft Developer Studio and that dialog is tested (by pressing CTRL+T), the Developer Studio will cause an alignment fault and will be shut down.

RESOLUTION

The only current workaround is to avoid testing dialogs containing two or more OLE Custom Controls inside the Developer Studio. Instead the dialog can be tested by instantiating the associated dialog class and calling the DoModal() member function.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This bug was corrected in Visual C++ 4.1.
