Hi Geoff,

I made a complete new installation of Vo2.8 sp3 on my notebook.
I can confirm this behaviour showing a long list of classes from the
application in the combox inherit from...

I'm experiencing the same problem, even though you are on a control,
it seems to be including all the Window classes.

Willie.

Are you using the same version as us or do you have a newer, secret one
<g>. It is quite clear that this behaviour is present in the downloaded
install as several other people have confirmed. I have also had three
other people here in Melbourne who don't frequent the news group also
confirm the problem and the others I reported.

The other pain in the neck is treeview duplication from importing MEFs,
common entity name corruption (which can be repaired by opening all
entities in the editor - cutting them - saving the now empty editor -
opening the editor - pasting back) and of course the dozens of
unnecessary IDE corruption warnings when you import an AEF over an
existing one.

The other bug NOT fixed is when you go open a window binary for editing,
do nothing (or something) and close it, you still get the warnings about
changing the code. Then you go in and out after doing something more and
you DON'T get the warning. This is very frustrating because you doubt
yourself about changes made, reverse things just in case and so on. This
was a bug introduced in SP2 (like the others) and is still not fixed.

What did I pay for? SP2 bugs not fixed, enhancements I don't really
need, nothing new except SP3 bugs...

Not happy.

Geoff
