================================================
WARNINGS AND CAVEATS (CUMULATIVE)      22 Jul 1999
================================================
VS-OCX6 and VSLIGHT6 are not guaranteed to run under Windows 3.1 or Windows NT 3.51.

To use VS-OCX under Windows NT4, you have to have Service Pack 2 or later installed.
Correct function of VS-OCX under Windows NT4 without SP2 or later is not guaranteed.

Loading more than one instance of vsElasticLight in an array at runtime may cause a crash.

At runtime, do not move controls on a form that contains an Elastic Light, or if they are
children of vsElastic which has AutosizeChildren set to Proportional or Grid.  If you have
to move one or more controls that are children of an Elastic, set vsElastic's
AutosizeChildren to None, move controls as needed, and set autosizing back to its original
value.  If you are moving controls sized by ElasticLight, disable the ElasticLight first,
move controls, and re-enable the elastic.  Refer to the Move Controls demo in VSOCX6\Samples.

================================================
CORRECTED PROBLEMS                     22 Jul 1999
================================================
Awk now handles scientific notation
Added a new test to validate IndexTab ClientLeft/Top/Width/Height when initializing initializing window in C++. 
Awk.Val is now locale-aware (recognizes commas, etc instead of '.')

Reset hooks when setting Align properties. This makes it a little 
            more robust. Done so it works with Map control.

Improved Elastic and Tab palette-awareness.
Awk now handles fields up to 64k.
IndexTab no longer inhibits default command button when Caption has no 
            shortcuts.
Transparent icons in IndexTab are now always transparent.
    

Invisible tabs in multiline mode can now be selected

Changes have been made to the OnSize code in order to enable the resizing of controls when covered with a .bmp image. 

Mouse coordinates accurately reflected as negatives when moved off 
            control area to the left or top.

Added generic property pages

Optimized elastic drawing 
Cleaned up code to allow compiling with VC++ 6
FontResize works in C++            
Button events work in VC++ 
Reduced flashing etc by preventing the Elastic from getting focus
Improved CDemo to show styles, event handling, etc.

IndexTab now responds to arrow keys within a UserControl

Improved grid splitters 
Improved error codes returned by the Awk evaluator

Excessive flicker when resizing windowless controls has been corrected
Min/Max Child Settings now enabled when used with a splitter

===============================================
WAIVERS (CUMULATIVE)                   22 Jul 1999
================================================
By design, Elastic Light placed on any other container than a form (for example,
in a user control) will not work.

================================================
KNOWN PROBLEMS (CUMULATIVE)            22 Jul 1999
================================================

Bad repainting with VB listbox when style = 1 (check boxes). This seems to be a bug with the list control itself, or with the ISimpleFrameSite provided by VB. The same problem occurs with the SSTab, VSOCX5, and VSOCX6.

** Easy workaround:
	Put a PictureBox in the Elastic, then put the Listbox inside the PictureBox.

	To avoid seeing a double border, set the PictureBox's BorderStyle to '0 - None'.

Elastic placed on an MDI child disables its standard Windows form-controlling keys.
Cause:	Under investigation.
Circumvention:  None.

Focus on IndexTab causes the Form_KeyDown event fire twice.
If an MDI child contains only one elastic, clicking on the elastic will not bring
the child form into foreground.
Cause: 	A Windows problem.
Circumvention:  Place one native VB control (such as button) on top of the tab
                or elastic.

Version number in vbp is incorrect
Making controls visible brings them to the front
Elastic alone on MDI child form disables standard Win keys (ctrl F6)

DOCUMENTATION CHANGES                  30 Jun 98   
================================================
New feature in vsAwk: User-defined functions.

Builds 14 and later allow for user-defined functions in the vsAwk expression
evaluator.

User-defined functions are called from the vsAwk's Variable event handler.

Please refer to the AwkUDF demo application distributed with the control commencing
with build 18 on June 30, 1998.

** NOTE **
This demo requires VS-OCX version 6.0.0.14 (May 21) or later.
Older versions will fail and refuse to evaluate user-defined functions.
