The following is a problem I have been having with every single VisualBasic application for some time, and I ask for your help now:
Every single VisualBasic application I have tried lacks the minimize and maximize buttons, even when the application is supposed to have them. In addition, the taskbar button is missing (on Gnome 1.4.x/Metacity 2.10.3 under Fedora 4), so there is no way to recall the application once the window is obscured by another application, except by clearing the desktop. The applications show the buttons on the virtual desktop, and the problem arises only when the application uses the window manager for its own window. This problem was confirmed on Metacity and MWM.
Please open a bug in bugzilla, attach simple VB app to it and assign it to me, once I have some free time I'll have a look at it.

This problem is also experienced with Delphi applications, it is not new, and it still exists as of current CVS (2005-09-29): http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1598
I have uploaded the sample VB app there as an additional testcase for this bug. However, it seems that I am unable to assign the bug to you, since I did not create the bug report.
