SYMPTOMS
Using one of the following commands results in unexpected behavior when the appropriate mouse button is subsequently pressed. The WAIT window flashes briefly on the screen and then disappears: ON KEY LABEL RIGHTMOUSE WAIT WINDOW ""

-or-

ON KEY LABEL LEFTMOUSE WAIT WINDOW ""

-or-

ON KEY LABEL MOUSE WAIT WINDOW ""



RESOLUTION
Two possible alternatives to using a WAIT window are:
 * Instead of using a WAIT window, use a procedure that defines a window, activates it, and places an @SAY "" command inside it. -or-


 * Use the ON KEY LABEL RIGHTMOUSE SET MESSAGE TO "" command instead of a WAIT window. The text will appear on the status bar when the right mouse button is pressed.



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