Problems with upgrading to 7.12

I am having problems with icons disappearing after calling a function from my main program. I am using DEFINE GROUP OF OUTLOOK; DEFINE BITMAP OF OUTLOOK.

I never had this problem before. Are there additional changes required for upgrading to 7.12???

Thank you,

Darrell,

Please test samples\TestOutL.prg and check if it works fine for you,

Here it is working ok and we have not modified it lately. Thanks,

Hi Antonio,

I believe I found the problem. I try to open BMP files in Workshop and I get the following error -> UNKNOWN BITMAP FORMAT. I will try to convert BMP to better version and try again.

Darrell,

Please open the EXE with the Resources Workshop and check that the bitmaps are inside the EXE

Hi Antonio,

I checked the EXE and the bitmaps are there. I found the cause of the problem. It seems the string length for the PROMPT clause was too long. I shortened text within source code and it works. I hope this can be fixed for the next release.

Thank you,
