Quickwin program freezes after using dialog box

Hi,
I want to use a Quickwin program with mouse control and a dialog box, but no way, it freezes after closing this dialog box.
I am using VS 2010, Windows 7 64 bit. I found an old thread with a similar problem, but that one finished without giving the solution...

I attach a zip with an extract of a major project. After running the program, click on "Continue", move the cursor a bit and the box should open. Just click OK and it freezes because it is waiting for a mouse action. I am aware that the problem is most certainly that the program expects the mouse action in the wrong window, but I didn't find a way to force it into the correct one. By the way, why do I have to move the mouse after clicking Continue?

Thanks, H.

The old thread is not dead, Intel is working on the issue.

Here is the active thread. You can try the library that Bob Mance attached to a late post, but it seems to create new problems for at least one user so we're still working on it. At least we understand, in a general way, what is going wrong. How to fix it, though, is still being worked.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the answer, but it is not the same problem. I participated myself in the thread you indicated and this problem (freezing at the end of the program) is now solved for me (no idea why, I didn't do anything special and taskhost is running).

The problem I am having now is during the execution of a Quickwin program, like the example I attached earlier. Or do you think it's finally the same problem? But then, why does the "Exit Window" work fine for me? And in the real program, the dialog box I included in the test program allows to finish the program - that works fine as well, no freezing. It is only the return from the dialog box to its parent window (from where I called it and which itself is a child) that bugs.

The old thread I mentioned before is really old (2001):

It is not about use of a dialog box, but it is also a problem I experienced

cheers, Hermann

The problem may be related. It is about what happens when a dialog box is dismissed.
