Initial 'utilities' Window showing

Post by Jonathan Hodder »

Has anyone encounted these two problems with the
latest FWH - compiled with the supplied xHarbour.

First : When running a program that opens an MDI window
it creates an initial 'utilities' window before running the program.
If you run the example I can see this as a black
background window with a car icon.

Secondly : The icons of all child windows take on the initial child windows icon.
Again If you run the example each child window should show its own
icon - they all show a printer on my computers.

I can post a jpg of the problem if someone could tell me a URL where
I could post it.

The example is compiled on W2K off an W2003 Server.
The application I'm working on is to be run on W2K W2003S and XP,
all of which show the same problem, so its to do with the FWH or xH versions.
Both FWH and xH have been downloaded from FW today.

Thanks :?

Parent Icon shows correctly.
First child window icon shows correctly.
Second and third icons replicate the first child window - incorrectly.
Tried reassigning and refreshing second and third child icons
after opening without success.
