We have a window that has been worked exclusivly in NT 4.0. We now want to edit the window on a PC running Windows 3.11. When trying to load the window in the designer, the PC hangs before completing. The window is fine under NT. We tried to open the window on several other 3.11 PC's with the same result. Any ideas??????

Simon,
I don't have the answer for you, but a while ago I had the same thing happen to me. The window inquestion would hang with the last message in the status line of Form Designer as far as I remember being something like "Trying to open the XXX table", where XXX was my table name.
I have since upgraded those PCs to Win95 so I don;t have that problem anymore, but you're definitely not the only one with this problem.
I don't think it's NT this time however, because I had designed that window in Win95 at the time. Both NT and Win95 were opening it, Win 3.1 did not. It did however run fine under all three.

Dave,
We found the problem. It was to do with a cmbo box. If the combo box was removed in NT the window could be opened in 3.11. Adding the same combo box to the window in 3.11 then caused the window to hang again. I don't know why NT was OK but thats life I guess!
