Scrollbars in the RTF (RichEdit) can freeze(usually only seen when compiled, not seen in IDE) when the RichEdit dll is loaded after the Skinframework and Skinframework can't correctly hook it.

To fix this manually load RichEdit before the Skinframework:

Add in top (general section):

     Private Declare Function LoadLibrary Lib "kernel32" Alias "LoadLibraryA" (ByVal lpLibFileName As String) As Long

Add in MDIForm_Load before you load skin:
     LoadLibrary "RICHED32.DLL"

Hi - this useful info also helps when there is a fault with msflxgrd.ocx not skinning properly in Windows 8 and 10.

I simply replaced the DLL name referenced above with MSFLXGRD.OCX and this is now working fine.

Thanks, JD

This is also a problem with True DB Grid 7.0 (TODG7.OCX) which I used this method on 15.3.1 and it solved the Horizontal scrollbar on that one. Thanks Supermario!

.. although we purchased 18.5.0 as it was fixed in that version however 2 new issues were introduced that is causing us pain, might be tempted to roll everything back...!
Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 18.5.0

Platform: Windows 7 Enterprise (64-bit)

Language: Visual Basic 6.0
