This is the 3rd time I post this problem, previous attempts
unfortunatelly remained without any answer.
I think the problem itself is important enough to solve, so I try once
again:
I have a main application form. (mainForm)
I show a modal dialog passing the main form
as the the parameter "owner" like this:
dialogForm.ShowDialog( mainForm );
In my development environment when I minimize
the modal dialog, the mainForm is minimized too, correctly.
However in the production environment, the same executable
behaves erratic: When the user minimizes the modal dialog, the
mainForm is not minimized, and it is still on the screen. The other
difference that the modal for is minimized not to the taskbar, but the
left bottom of the desktop area, as a small rectangle.
As anyone can imagine the effect is terrible: The main form
does not react any user interaction but beeps, and the
user reports: The application is freezed.
Development Env:
XP Prof. SP2 English, .NET Framework 1.1 SP1
Production env 1:
XP Prof SP2, Hungarian, .NET Framework 1.1 SP1
other
Production env 2:
Windows 2003 Server SP?, English, .NET Framework 1.1 SP1
The application was installed with the VS.NET 2003 generated Setup.
Any ideas?
Thx for answers
