   Windows, version 6.0

SYMPTOMS
========

The DHTML Page Designer does not add an Option Explicit statement to code
by default. With this statement, Visual Basic requires you to declare
variables before you use them.

RESOLUTION
==========

To add Option Explicit to your DHTML Page Designer pages:

1. Right-click on DHTML page in the Visual Basic Project window.

2. Select View Code from the pop-up menu.

3. Insert the text "Option Explicit" as the very first line.

4. Repeat this process for all DHTML pages in the project and every time
   you create a new DHTML page.

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.
