   Hi,

I'm using DockingPanes and CommandBars 9.80 in a VB6 app.
It works more ore less like the VisualStudio-example. If I open
a form with .Show vbModal and switch shortly to another app using
the taskbar my program crashes completely  crtl + alt + del

Please tell me there is a way to prevent this

	Hello, Can you please try to reproduce it with new project... Maybe you forgot something like Set DockingPanes.CommandBars = CommandBars and attach project here if you will reproduce it.

	Hello, > Set DockingPanes.CommandBars = CommandBars This is done using DockingPane.SetCommandBars. There's no way to make a simple app reproducing the error, because it doesn't happen in simple apps. It seems you need a certain amount of controls and/or windows open... I removed code and controls from the form calling the modal window. Even if only a messagebox is open it causes the error. Looks like focus between the main window and the modal window are bouncing back and forth. The title of the main window is flickering. There is definetely no basic code entered... Any more ideas.... ?

	Hello, Stefan, I need to debug it and see to be sure it is problem in our code, not in your. How can I say where problem if you only give me this description? Try to copy whole project to another directory and remove as much as possible till it can be run and problem can be reproduced and send to support@codejock.com

	Hi, I found the reason excluding code and controls bit by bit: It was caused by the Infragistics ActiveToolBars Control, which we haven't found the time to replace it by the CommandBars. If any childwindow is open with that control on it's form, even if not used, you get this strange behaviour. Thanks for offering help!
