SYMPTOMS
========
If the navigation arrow keys are used to try to change the Image size of icons
when there are pictures already stored in the Image List property page, the user
correctly receives the following error message:
"Property is read-only if imagelist contains images"
However, closing this dialog by pressing the OK button causes the message box to
reappear. This behavior continues in a loop until Microsoft Visual Basic is
terminated.
NOTE: This only occurs if the arrow keys are used in an attempt to change the
image size.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the
beginning of this article. This bug has been fixed in Visual Basic 5.0.

Steps to Reproduce Problem
--------------------------
1. Start a new project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default. Add an
ImageList control to Form1.
2. Choose the ellipsis (...) button adjacent to the Custom property of the
control. Select the Images tab, click the Insert Picture button, and select
any picture file.
3. Choose the General tab in the property page and use an arrow key to select an
image size. The following message box will appear:
"Property is read-only if imagelist contains images"
Pressing OK causes the message box to reappear in a loop, and Visual Basic has to
be shut down from the Windows Task List.
