XADM: Clicking Title Bar of Directory Import Pauses Import

Last reviewed: February 10, 1998
Article ID: Q175286

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server versions 4.0, 5.0, and 5.5

SYMPTOMS

During a bulk import operation in the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program, if you click the Directory Import dialog box's title bar and hold the mouse button down, the import process will pause.

CAUSE

The import operation pauses because a message is sent to the system telling it to move the dialog box, which causes the screen updates to freeze. The progress dialog and the actual import process are handled by the same thread.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server versions 4.0, 5.0, and 5.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
