PC Forms: E-Form Causes GP Fault

• Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer, version 1.0, used with:
  • Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, versions 3.0, 3.2
• Microsoft Visual Basic programming system for Windows, version 2.0

SYMPTOMS

When you try to access a custom form created using version 1.0 of Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer, a Windows general protection fault (GP fault) may occur.

CAUSE

This problem occurs when you choose the Run command from within Visual Basic before the executable file (EXE) is built.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Visual Basic version 2.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

If you create a custom form within Visual Basic and issue the Run command from the Toolbar (or if you choose Start from the Run menu), the executable file created using the Make .EXE command may be corrupted. If you run the project at design time, perform the following steps before you create an executable file:

1. From the File menu, choose Save Project to save the project.



2. From the File menu, choose Exit to close Visual Basic.



3. Re-launch Visual Basic and open the E-form project.



4. From the File menu, choose Make EXE to build the project.
