SYMPTOMS
When you display a property sheet using MFC (with DIALOG-type templates for the property pages) on a Windows 95 machine with ComCtl32 version 4.00 and MFC42X.dll version 4.21.7022, assertions occur on line 257 of DlgProp.cpp. An assertion is generated for each page that is present on the property sheet.



CAUSE
This behavior is due to a bug in the code that checks whether the template is DIALOGEX type.

<div class="resolution_section">

RESOLUTION
The assertion can be safely ignored.
