Steps to Reproduce Problem
--------------------------

1. Start a new project in Visual Basic, 16-Bit Edition. Form1 is created by
  default.

2. Add a Data control, and set the Databasename property to Biblio.mdb contained
  in the VB directory. Set the Recordsource property to Authors.

3. Add a Sheridan 3D Panel control to the form. Set the DataSource property to
  Data1, and the DataField property to Author.

4. Add a DBCombo control to the form and set the RowSource property to Data1 and
  the ListField property to Au_ID.

Run the project by pressing F5. A General Protection Fault results. In general,
the General protection Fault occurs in the Vb.exe module. In one test, the
address of the fault was 0001:2571.
