FIX: A Windows Form that hosts an ErrorProvider control and that displays a modal form does not activate correctly
SYMPTOMS
This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:
- An application is running that contains a Microsoft Windows Form.
- The Windows Form hosts an ErrorProvider control and displays a
modal form.
- Other applications are also running.
If you try to activate the application that contains the Windows Form by using the ALT+TAB key
combination or by clicking the application's taskbar button, the main form
may not appear in front of other open application windows.
The modal form is brought to the front. However, the
Windows Form that hosts the
ErrorProvider control may remain behind the other application
windows.
