The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh, version 2.5b

SUMMARY

When you are using the FB+Migration application on a FoxBASE+ for the Macintosh program, the Analyzer flags an @ ... SAY command as being incorrect when it actually is correct.

CAUSE

The error message occurs because the FONT clause has been added to the end of the @ ... SAY command.

RESOLUTION

If you choose the Replace button, no changes will be made to the program. The line of code will still function properly.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

Create a program in FoxBASE+/Mac that contains the following line:
```
      @ 2,15  SAY "This is a test" FONT "Monaco",12
```
Save the program and run the FB+Migration application in FoxPro for Macintosh.
Choose Analyze Programs and select the program just created.

The line will be flagged as containing the following error:

   COLOR clauses
