I have a Fox MTDLL with a number of objects in, these are instigated using a timer in the MTDLL so that they run in a seperate 'thread' (please don't lets get into a debate about threads, apartments and when is a thread not a thread.. etc!).

Anyway I have noticed that when the GUI application issues CreateObject()

loMTDLLObject=CREATEOBJECT("FoxMTDLL.Object")

The "new" Foxpro Icon flashes in the taskbar. What I mean by that is that next to the GUI application icon a fox head appears and then disappears. I could understand that if I was using a .EXE com server, but I understood MTDLL's run in the same memory space with the same runtime load!?

Has anyone else seen this? Is there anyway to get rid of this?


Gary.
