Version(s): WINDOWS:6.0
Operating System(s):

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 6.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When creating a new catalog in the Component Gallery, the newly created catalog
name and path is listed in the catalog list box. Additionally, the Global and
Default check boxes are dimmed.

CAUSE
=====

Each time you create a new catalog, the filename is first stored in an array.
The catalog is not created until you close the Component Gallery Options dialog
box. The Global and Default check boxes are enabled and the path to the catalog
is removed for the next time when the Options dialog box opens again.

STATUS
======

This behavior is by design.
