Problems Running Project for Windows Minimized

 * }

Q85295

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Project for Windows, versions 1.0, 3.0, 3.0a, 4.0

-

SYMPTOMS
When Microsoft Project for Windows is run minimized with Windows 3.0 with a Dual-Pane view as the default view setting, an &quot;Unrecoverable Application Error&quot; will result upon running the minimized icon. When running Project for Windows in the same manner with Windows 3.1, Project will run, but the bottom pane will fill the entire screen rather than show the split screen view.

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

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

 * 1) Start Project for Windows and set the Options Preferences Default View setting to be the Task Entry view.
 * 2) Exit from Project for Windows.
 * 3) From the Program Manager, run Project for Windows using File Run and enable the Run Minimized check box.
 * 4) Double-click the minimized Project icon.

With Windows 3.0, Project for Windows will generate an &quot;Unrecoverable Application&quot; error while trying to display the Task Entry view.

With Windows 3.1, Project will run without errors, although the bottom view (the Task Form in this case) will fill the entire screen.
