I am always getting the below exception messages upon launching TDA.
I can clear error and could work for a while and then it would intermittently re-appear executing queries.

Exception Information
**********************************************************************
Exception: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception
Message : Error creating window handle.
Stack Trace:
at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.CreateHandle(CreateParams cp)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateHandle()
at System.Windows.Forms.Form.CreateHandle()
at DevExpress.XtraEditors.XtraForm.CreateHandle()
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.get_Handle()

at Quest.Toad.Notification.NotificationManager.ExceptionDelegate(Object
sender, ExceptionEventArgs args)
WORKAROUND:
1) Close Toad for Data Analysts (TDA).
2) Rename the "Toad for Data Analysts x.x " folder, located in the C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Application Data\Quest Software directory, to "Toad for Data Analysts x.x OLD". x.x is the version number of your TDA.
For example: C:\Documents and Settings\toaduser\Application Data\Quest Software\Toad for Data Analysts 3.0
3) Restart Toad and try to replicate issue.
Note: This will reset all your settings and remove connection information from your TDA.
One can get the main settings all back, if desired after doing this test.
If this corrects the issue, with Toad for Data Analysts closed, move these files from the for Data Analysts x.x OLD folder to the ‘new’ Data Analysts x.x folder.
1) Connections.xml
2) Settings.xml
