SYMPTOMS
========
The ActiveX (OLE) Control may not paint correctly if it was built using Visual
C++ 4.2. Two known issues include controls not repainting when resized, and
control child windows not being repainted. Other painting problems have been
observed when subclassing native Windows controls.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior is caused by changes to COleControl::OnPaint which add
optimizations to improve performance.
RESOLUTION
==========
COleControl now includes a method, GetControlFlags, to control how painting will
be handled in an ActiveX control. Removing the fastBeginPaint flag from the bit
field returned by GetControlFlags will cause your ActiveX control to use the
same OnPaint code found in Visual C++ 4.1
STATUS
======
This behavior is by design.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Sample Code
-----------
DWORD CMyOleControl::GetControlFlags ()
{
return COleControl::GetControlFlags() & ~fastBeginPaint;
}

in Books on Line.
