PRB: Can't Tile or Cascade Programs Created with Visual Basic

• Microsoft Visual Basic programming system for Windows, versions 1.0, 2.0, 3.0
• Microsoft Windows 3.0

SYMPTOMS

Applications created with Microsoft Visual Basic do not tile or cascade as do other Windows-based applications.

CAUSE

Visual Basic creates applications that are pop-up windows. This window style does not respond to the tile or cascade message sent from the Windows Task List or other applications that support the cascade and tile features.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

You can verify this action by launching two applications created in Visual Basic, then bringing up the Windows Task List by pressing CTRL+ESC. Then from the Task List, choose either the Cascade or Tile button. Notice that nothing has changed in the arrangements of these two Visual Basic application windows. You may have expected the Visual Basic application windows to cascade or tile as other Windows applications do, but they do not.
