+Summary: Unhandled System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException
+
+Background:
+
+Open Dental(R) is a Windows(R) application with a 4-6 year history that is
+in production use now and is authored primarily by Jordan S. Sparks, DMD
+(though contributed to by others, primarily Frederik Carlier, and trivially
+by Kevin Ford) for assisting a dentist with the tasks associated with
+maintaining a dental practice through automation.
+
+GNUdental(tm) is a fork of Open Dental(R) announced on 5 March 2007 and
+created because prior to its announcement, Dr. Sparks repeatedly described
+himself publicly as having little to no interest in supporting Linux(R)
+with Open Dental(R) in the near future.
+
+GNUdental's primary technical focus is on supporting non- Windows(R)
+operating systems via Mono in the near future and its primary philosophical
+focus is on (a) openness of code, bug reporting, and discussions related to
+both, (b) personal integrity by the development team members, and (c)
+trustworthy software & service fostering a genuine community spirit (to
+mirror that of the GNU(R) project) within the dental profession (arguably
+for the first time).
+
+Since the launch of the GNUdental(tm) project, development focused on
+supporting Linux(R) has been occuring more rapidly on Open Dental(R).
+
+This bug seems to be within the Mono project's code base, and though it
+does not seem to surface on Ubuntu(R) or Debian(R) systems, it *does*
+manifest itself on several current Gentoo systems
+(default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop profile for each system) and is therefore
+a blocker for GNUdental(tm) on Gentoo (perhaps also Open Dental(R) on
+Gentoo although current plans for Open Dental(R) include support only for
+Debian(R) and Ubuntu(R)).
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+A single line (line number 270):
+
+ this.tabControlImages = new System.Windows.Forms.TabControl();
+
+in file OpenDental/Main\ Modules/ContrChart.cs (svn-head) throws an
+Unhandled Exception for an out of range argument upon application execution
+from the command line.
+
+At the time of testing and reporting of this suspected bug in Mono, this
+line was present and this exception thrown in every svn-head revision of
+Open Dental(R) compiled & run on Gentoo between 28 March and 2 April 2007
+(at least revisions 92-116). See initial report at
+http://code.google.com/p/gnudental/issues/detail?id=13&can=2&q= and realize
+that this bug is reported on GNUdental's issue tracker because the Open
+Dental(R) Bugzilla only accepts bug reports from developers with svn-write
+privileges (see http://www.open-dent.com/manual/developers.html under
+section entitled, "Bugzilla" which currently reads in part: "Only
+developers with commit permission will be allowed to submit bugs.")
+
+However, it should be noted that these Open Dental(R) revisions have been
+known to change (administratively and without record) after being committed
+(see http://code.google.com/p/gnudental/issues/detail?id=19&can=1&q= ), so
+these results may not be readily reproducible for that reason (although
+that would be the only reason).
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+
+1. Install a Gentoo system with profile default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop
+2. Install svn-head versions of development tools including Mono and NAnt
+3. Download and compile svn-head version of Open Dental(R)
+(https://70.90.133.65:23793/svn/opendental/opendental4.7) (additional
+instructions which apply for both Open Dental(R) and GNUdental(tm) except
+in certain obvious specifics are here:
+http://code.google.com/p/gnudental/wiki/GettingStarted )
+4. make install in root of Open Dental(R) build tree (installs in /usr/local)
+5. type `opendental' at the command prompt.
+
+Actual Results:
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Argument is out of
+range.
+Parameter name: startIndex
+ at System.String.Substring (Int32 startIndex) [0x00000]
+ at OpenDental.ContrChart..ctor () [0x00000]
+ at (wrapper remoting-invoke-with-check) OpenDental.ContrChart:.ctor ()
+ at OpenDental.FormOpenDental.InitializeComponent () [0x00000]
+ at OpenDental.FormOpenDental..ctor () [0x00000]
+ at (wrapper remoting-invoke-with-check) OpenDental.FormOpenDental:.ctor ()
+ at OpenDental.FormOpenDental.Main () [0x00000]
+
+Expected Results:
+
+An application window like one of these should open up:
+http://www.gnudental.org/GNUdentalRunsInLinux.png/view
+http://www.gnudental.org/GD.png/view
+http://www.gnudental.org/Members/mmaglis/gnudental-builds-on-linux/view
+
+How often does this happen?
+
+100% of the time over the last 5 days with various revisions of Mono tools
+and Open Dental(R).
+
+Additional Information:
+
+1) multiple svn-head revisions of MonoDevelop have compiled and run on
+these Gentoo systems over the same time period without problems.
+
+2) MonoDevelop svn-head apparently makes no use of the Mono code that seems
+to contain this bug:
+
+kevin at gnudental1 ~/monodev/monodevelop $ svn update
+U ChangeLog
+U Core/src/MonoDevelop.Projects/MonoDevelop.Projects/ProjectService.cs
+<snip>
+U po/ChangeLog
+Updated to revision 75274.
+kevin at gnudental1 ~/monodev/monodevelop $ find . -name "*.cs" -exec grep
+TabControl {} \;
+ private Crownwood.Magic.Controls.TabControl tabControl1;
+ this.tabControl1 = new
+Crownwood.Magic.Controls.TabControl();
+ this.tabControl1.HideTabsMode =
+Crownwood.Magic.Controls.TabControl.HideTabsModes.ShowAlways;
+
+3) When a patch commenting out the line in question is applied (see
+following comment where this patch file will be attached), this exception
+goes away (although not surprisingly, is replaced by the following
+unhandled exception:
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not
+set to an instance of an object
+ at OpenDental.ContrChart.InitializeComponent () [0x00000]
+ at OpenDental.ContrChart..ctor () [0x00000]
+ at (wrapper remoting-invoke-with-check) OpenDental.ContrChart:.ctor ()
+ at OpenDental.FormOpenDental.InitializeComponent () [0x00000]

+ at (wrapper remoting-invoke-with-check)
+OpenDental.FormOpenDental:.ctor ()
+ at OpenDental.FormOpenDental.Main () [0x00000]
+
+4) Tested with numerous svn revisions of mono/mcs/libgdiplus over the
+course of time between 28 March and 2 April, but most recently with
+revision 75274.
