Re: Hourglass after application exit

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

So does MS monitor this group? I've googled the problem but haven't found
anything else on it.
It's like a wait cursor not tied to anything and any other click will make
it go away.....I've even, though it really wasn't logical, added default
cursor code in the closing which did not good.....of course......

I'd say these are diffrent issues. Chris is reporting that the process
remains running and must be killed with the Running Programs applet. This
tells me that he's not even closing his Form completely, since it shows up
there, and is almost certainly a bug in his code, not the CF.

Your issue (while I've never seen it) does sound more like a bug in the CF
where the app is fully unloaded but the default system cursor is not
restored properly on exit.

Very interesting.....Microsoft listening in here....???

Ginny,

It does the same thing with the release version on a disconnected Windows
2003 (non-SE) PPC device.
It doesn't really hurt anything but is going to be very visually
distracting to users who like me don't have a clue as to why.

Sounds like there may be a bug lurking here in CF2.....if it's happening
to others too.

Anyway to get this to MS's attention?

I've noticed a similar problem after updating my app from VS2003 to
VS2005, when exiting the app, it leaves a process or something running
requiring it to be killed off under Settings->Memory->Running
Programs. Speaking to another developer in one of our other offices,
he has noticed the same thing but with an app written from scratch in
VS2005 albeit targetted at PPC2003SE platform.
