I've just encountered a strange problem in one of the dialog boxes of
my application.  This particular dialog box contains about 30 controls,
all standard types.  There are two combo boxes of equal size close to
each other, as such: 

		----------------
        Item A	| XXXXX    | v |
		----------------

		----------------
        Item B  | XXX      | v |
		----------------

After the Item A combo box is dropped down and restored, part of the
bottom line of its rectangle is missing, like so:

		----------------
        Item A	| XXXX     | v |
		     -----------

		----------------
        Item B  | XXX      | v |
		----------------

Otherwise the combo box control works fine, as does the application.
I've tried moving the Item A box and looked for all kinds of possible
programming errors - but to no avail.  This is a normal dialog box
started up via DialogBox() and the template was created with the
SDK dialog editor.

Has anyone seen a similar problem?  Any suggestions or fixes would
be welcome.
