Currently investigating this problem along with several other apparently
related problems (TMemo not updating in one application but perfectly fine
in another that uses exactly the same code to update the memos)
Even sending WM_SETTEXT directly to the memo will not update it.
The problem before was that a TStatusBar was not being updated, changing the
component to a standard panel had no effect on it.
At a rough guess a component is hooking the message queue in some way and is
not passing them on. How would one be able to detect this?
The approach I have taken is to reinstall Delphi 3 first, then comment out
as much code as possible then gradually reintroduce it so as to be able to
detect the point at which the updates stop.
At this stage the shareware Toolbar97 components are on the suspect list but
with no evidence to prove it. The same could equally apply to TCompress
again with no proof, I suspect I may never actually know what is going on.
