SYMPTOMS
========

Resizing the height of a form causes the Width_Access method to fire.

STATUS
======

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------

1. Create a program that contains the following code and run the program:

        PUBLIC oForm1
        oForm1 = CREATE('oForm')
        oForm1.SHOW

        DEFINE CLASS oForm AS FORM

           PROCEDURE Width_ACCESS
           ? "Accessed"
           RETURN THIS.WIDTH

        ENDDEFINE

2. After the form appears, resize the form, increasing its height by using the
  mouse to drag a corner of the form.

3. Notice the word "Accessed" appears repeatedly in the form each time the
  Width_Access method fires.
