The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Query for Windows, version 1.0

When you use Microsoft Query to perform a query on a large database, you may not be able to switch out of the application without canceling the query.

Once Microsoft Query has started a query, you cannot bring up the Task List by pressing CTRL+ESC. To switch to another application, you must stop the query by pressing ESC several times.
