PRA: Cannot Include Comma in App Name Using Setup Wizard
'Article ID: Q101085

Creation Date: 04-JUL-1993

Revision Date: 05-FEB-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Access Distribution Kit version 1.1

SYMPTOMS

When you run a Setup program developed using the Microsoft Access Setup Wizard, the Program Manager group and icon text is truncated and the custom icon is not displayed.

CAUSE

When prompted for the name of your application, you typed a name that included a comma. The Program Manager group and icon text displays everything up to, but not including, the comma.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft Access Distribution Kit version 1.1. This problem no longer occurs in the Microsoft Access Developer's Toolkit version 2.0.

Steps to Reproduce Problem

 Run the Microsoft Access Setup Wizard.  When the "What is the name of your application?" message appears, type the following: "Thomas, Rolm, Buchannan" Finish running the Setup Wizard. Run your custom Setup program. Note that only "Thomas" appears in the new Program Manager group name and icon text.
