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

1. Open up a standard.exe project. Form1 is created by default.

2. Go to Projects/Components, and select the Microsoft ADO Data Control (ADODC)
  6.0. Drop the ADODC on the form.

3. Insert the following code in the General Declarations of the Form:

      Private Sub Adodc1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x _
      As Single, y As Single)
        Debug.Print "Down"
      End Sub

      Private Sub Adodc1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x _
      As Single, y As Single)
        Debug.Print "Move"
      End Sub

      Private Sub Adodc1_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x _
      As Single, y As Single)
        Debug.Print "Up"
      End Sub

4. Run the Visual Basic application.

5. Move the mouse over the ADODC, and click a few times anywhere on the control.
  Note that none of the mouse events are fired.
