- Microsoft SNA Server, versions 3.0, 3.0 SP1, 3.0 SP2

SYMPTOMS
========

When you use the 5250 applet that ships with SNA Server, the window may appear
to remain minimized or maximized. The window is in a state that does not allow
it to be resized by the user.

CAUSE
=====

The window settings are being saved to the Win5250.ini file as negative values
when the applet is closed with the window in a minimized or maximized position.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 3.0. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

This problem does not occur in the retail version of SNA Server version 4.0.
