message box problem

Here's a wierd one.

if a reference is made to the skinframework but a skin isn't loaded message boxes unload themselves after a couple of seconds.

ie:

1. start new project vb6

2. place command button on form

3. place this code in form initialize event

Private Sub Form_Initialize()
SkinFrameworkGlobalSettings.License = "Skin Framework Control Copyright (c) 2003-2006 Codejock Software" & vbCrLf & "PRODUCT-ID: Codejock.SkinFramework.ActiveX.v10.1" & vbCrLf & "VALIDATE-CODE: xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx"

End Sub

4. place this code in command button click event

Private Sub Command1_Click()
MsgBox "hello", vbExclamation + vbOKOnly, "test"
End Sub

5. run application click command 1

6. message box appears and disappears again after a couple of seconds without being clicked.

please help

Thanks

hi

the project was a test which consisted only of the code shown in my earlier post in this thread, one form with a standard vb command button and the skinframework ocx (no other contols other than the normal default objects had been added to the project). the problem only occurs when NO skin is loaded. it also transfers to message boxes generated by the vb6 IDE when in design mode. the problem only seems to affect the instance of vb running the test. if i open up a second instance of vb with a different project it all works ok as do other applications. i didn't have the problem with beta 2. I have compiled the software with install shield and installed it on other machines and the same thing happens. we are about to release a beta of our latest app which is why we purchased the skinframework so we would be really grateful for a rapid solution.

Hi Oleg

How would you like me to send files etc to you?

Alan

hi Oleg

did you receive the stuff i sent to support re this problem?

Alan

Hi Oleg

Sorry but I couldn't login to download this link as I haven't recieved a user name and password to do so. I think this is probably my own fault as when I submitted the support form I think that my email address may have had a period after it by mistake. Is it possible to resend the ocx to alan@gold42.com

Kind regards
