MORE INFORMATION
================
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------
1. Create and run a program with the following code:
oTBar=CREATEOBJECT("mytoolbar")
oTBar.Show
READ EVENTS
DEFINE CLASS mytoolbar AS toolbar
Caption = "Toolbar1"
Height = 109
Left = 0
Top = 0
Width = 110
Name = "mytoolbar"
ADD OBJECT olecontrol1 AS olecontrol WITH ;
OLECLASS="MSComCtl2.DTPicker.2",;
Top = 5, ;
Left = 5, ;
Height = 100, ;
Width = 100, ;
Name = "Olecontrol1"
ADD OBJECT cmdbtn1 AS COMMANDBUTTON
procedure cmdbtn1.click
clear events
endproc
ENDDEFINE
2. When the ToolBar displays, click inside the Date Time Picker Control. You may
want to either highlight a date value or click the DOWN ARROW key.
3. Using an ALT key combination like ALT+Z, ALT+C, or ALT+U and so on, causes
the following exception error:
Fatal Error: Exception code-C0000005 Called from ...........
Clicking OK, the only option, shuts down Visual FoxPro.
NOTE: Any ALT key combination other than the Visual FoxPro System menu Hot Keys
(ALT+F, ALT+E, ALT+V, ALT+T, ALT+P, ALT+W, ALT+H) causes the exception error.
