Hi,

   Got a curious one for everyone, and hopefully some sort of quick response.
I've seen this happen in Win 3.1 and it's rather strange.  We have a program
that does EnableWindow(false) and then about 15 lines later does a GetFocus
and ends up with a 0?!  Has the window that was enabled eaten the focus up
somehow?  The docs for win 3.1 sdk don't mention this little glitch!  Has
anyone else encountered this?

   Mike was here...
