TITLE   :BUG: "Default" Property Ignored for Command Button on Win NT
PRODUCT :Microsoft Visual Basic for Windows
PROD/VER:WINDOWS:5.0
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:PgmCtrlsStd

======================================================================
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Visual Basic Control Creation, Learning, Professional, and
   Enterprise Editions for Windows, version 5.0 on the following platform:
   - Windows NT
---------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you use either the Slider control or the ListView control provided by
the COMCTL32.OCX (version 5.00.3717 or 5.00.3828), the "Default" property
of a command button is ignored. No error occurs, but the button's Click
event is not executed.

This behavior only occurs under the Windows NT operation system. This does
not occur under Windows 95.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed
at the beginning of this article. We are researching this bug and will post
new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes
available.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------

1. Create a new Standard EXE project.

2. Add a reference to the "Windows Common Controls" (COMCTL32.OCX).

3. Add a command button to the default form.

4. Set the Default property of the command button to True.

5. Paste the following code in the code window of the form:

      Private Sub Command1_Click()
         MsgBox "Click Event Has Been Fired"
      End Sub

6. Place a TextBox, ListView, and a Slider control on the form.

7. Save and run the application.

8. Set the focus on the TextBox and press Enter.

   Result: The command button's Click event fires and the message box
   appears as expected.

9.  Set the focus on either the Slider or the ListView controls.

10. Press Enter.

   Result: The command button's Click event does not fire and the message
   box does not appear.
