SYMPTOMS
When invoking the Class Browser to view the selected object in the Form Designer, the correct class will not be automatically selected when the Class Browser loads. This problem does not occur if the object in the Form Designer has the same name as the underlying class.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

This bug was corrected in Visual Studio 6.0 Service Pack 3.

For more information about Visual Studio service packs, please see the following articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

194022 INFO: Visual Studio 6.0 Service Packs, What, Where, Why

194295 HOWTO: Tell That Visual Studio 6.0 Service Packs Are Installed



Steps to Reproduce Behavior
Run the following code to demonstrate this problem: CREATE CLASS frm AS FORM OF foot NOWAIT KEYBOARD "{Y}" RELEASE WINDOW 'class designer' CREATE FORM footform AS frm FROM foot NOWAIT ASELOBJ(xx,1) KEYBOARD "{alt+t}c" Note that the Class Browser loads the appropriate class library (foot), but the form class (frm) is not selected.

Changing the name of the form object such that it matches the name of the class will show the correct class selected in the Class Browser. For example, add the following code immediately after the line containing the ASELOBJ function:

xx(1).Name="frm" and rerun the program. The Class Browser now selects the form class.
