SYMPTOMS
If ID_APP_EXIT is used as the resource identifier for a button control in a dialog box, it will exit App Studio when the dialog box is tested. In App Studio for Windows NT, if the dialog box is tested, it will exit and cause an application exception in App Studio.

Some other resource identifiers that may cause side effects while being tested inside App Studio are:

ID_WINDOW_NEW

ID_WINDOW_CASCADE

ID_WINDOW_TILE_HORZ

ID_WINDOW_TILE_VERT

ID_HELP_INDEX



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the products listed at the beginning of this article.

This problem was corrected in Visual C++ version 2.0, which includes MFC version 3.0. However, the problem still exists in the 16-bit product line.



MORE INFORMATION
Steps to reproduce the problem:
 * 1) Open App Studio.
 * 2) Open an existing .RC file (use any of Scribble's resource scripts).
 * 3) Open the About dialog box.
 * 4) Add a button.
 * 5) Change the button's ID to ID_APP_EXIT.
 * 6) Test the dialog box and choose the new button.
