The problem is that it's a bitmap, and not a symbol from one
of the fonts. The corruption that occurred due to the wrong
symbol appearing (and leading to somewhat embarrassing, yet
slightly humorous stories...I ran into it, too, and it made me
seem like a horrendous speller) was the bug in PrvFixupPointers.
I fixed this problem in this fashion: By revamping that bit of
code to change and update the button's label dynamically.
With a bitmap, though...that's just funky. It's like the bitmap
itself is corrupted...and I know it isn't, because I've used it
many times, and I'm the guy who sent him that bitmap he used.
Maybe it's a Win95/NT thing? (Yes, I'm still using 95, I need it
for some older hardware testing software that doesn't run under 98)
