System.NullReferenceException, ProgressBarAdv

[dwedewdew]

Hi,

I'm using Syncfusion 4.3.0.30 on both win2000 SP4 and winXP SP2 os.

Using the ProgressBarAdv with WaitingGradient style works perfectly on WinXP SP2. However, launching the same ProgressBarAdv under win2000 SP4 throws an System.NullreferenceException.
this is ugly, because our main application has to support both operating systems.

We need a workaround for this problem as soon as possible.

Yours

Christian!

I attached an sample which demonstrates this behaviour.

The exception message follows:
