Resource Compiler The Resource Compiler now works when run on an HPFS drive in a directory that contains embedded blanks. Runtime Environment: Objects ---------------------------- All Objects The "Top" event information returned for a DragDrop event has been corrected. Previously, VRInfo( "Top" ) returned an incorrect value. Now it returns the distance from the mouse to the top of the drop target (as documented). Container The ReadOnly attribute for a container record now prevents direct editing of the record. Previously, the attribute could be set but had no effect. Previously, turning off the ReadOnly attribute for a field would not enable direct editing of the field title. Now the field title becomes editable when the ReadOnly attribute is removed. Previously, when using a Container object set to details view with a split bar, attempting to drag a record would result in the split bar being dragged instead. Now dragging of records is enabled in this case. MultiLineEntryField Updated the SelectedText property so that it takes into account the text format of the MLE. Previously, if the user changed the text format of the MLE, SelectedText would not always return the correct result. Previously, getting the Font property would not always return the correct point size for the current font in the MLE, specifically when the Font property was set using VRSet rather than by dragging from the font palette. Now the Font property contains the correct value in this case. PictureBox Previously, specifying the same icon for multiple PictureBox objects resulted in unpredictable behavior when the application closed. The application will now close correctly in this case. General: Samples ---------------- Employee Updated the Employee sample to work with DB2/2 version 2.1.
