BUG: Property Page Does Not Close Using Compiled VB OCX

MORE INFORMATION

Below are the steps to reproduce this behavior. These steps are broken into three segments, including the creation of the DLL Server, the creation of the OCX, and testing the OCX.

Part 1 - Create the DLL Server

1. Create a new ActiveX DLL Project. Class1 is created by default.
2. From the Project menu, select Properties, and set the Project Name to "DLLSVR."
3. Paste the following code into Class1:

         Public Sub ShowIt()
            Dim MyForm As Form1
   
            ' Create new instance of the form
            Set MyForm = New Form1
   
            ' Show the form as modal
            MyForm.Show vbModal
   
            ' Unload the form
            Unload MyForm
   
            ' Clear out form reference
            Set MyForm = Nothing
         End Sub
   
   						

4. Add a Form to the project.
5. Compile the DLL.
6. Save the project.

Part 2 - Create the Custom Control

1. Create a new ActiveX Control Project. UserControl1 is created by default. NOTE: Do not keep the DLL project from Part I loaded.
2. Select References from the Project menu, and add a reference to the previously created DLL, "DLLSVR."
3. Select Add Property Page from the Project menu, and add a Property Page.
4. Add a CommandButton to the property page.
5. Paste the following code into the Property Page's code window:

         Private Sub Command1_Click()
            Dim MyClass As DLLSVR.Class1
   
            ' Create instance of the class
            Set MyClass = New DLLSVR.Class1
   
            ' Call method of the class
            MyClass.ShowIt
   
            ' Get rid of class reference
            Set MyClass = Nothing
         End Sub
   
   						

6. Set the PropertyPages property of the UserControl to PropertyPage1.
7. Compile the OCX.
8. Save the project.

Part 3 - Testing the Control

1. Select Add Project from the File menu, and add a Standard EXE project, leaving the Custom Control Project from part 2 still loaded. Form1 is created by default.
2. Add an instance of the custom control to Form1.
3. Alternate-mouse click on the control and select "Properties."
4. Click the CommandButton on the Property Page.
5. Close the window that was shown.
6. Try to close the Property Page. Note that the Property Page doesn't go away. Clicking directly on the underlying form will cause the Property Page to be removed from the screen.
