The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5a and 2.5b

The command syntax for the ?|?? commands in the Windows-style online Help file in FoxPro 2.5a and 2.5b for Windows is incorrect. It shows the syntax for @ ... SAY instead of for ?|??.

The incorrect entry follows:

   ? | ?? Commands

  • The online Help files for FoxPro 2.0, 2.5, 2.5a, and 2.5b for MS-DOS.
