ON KEY LABEL in FoxPro for MS-DOS Active in System MenuLast reviewed: April 18, 1995Article ID: Q119897 |
The information in this article applies to:
SUMMARYThe online Help system and page L3-708 in the "Language Reference" manual state that:
"ON KEY LABEL" key assignments aren't in effect in the FoxPro system menu bar, dialogs, alerts, system popups and so on.This statement is true in FoxPro for Windows and FoxPro for Macintosh. However, ON KEY LABEL assignments ARE in effect in FoxPro for MS-DOS during these situations.
MORE INFORMATIONWhen a system menu popup is in the open state in FoxPro for Windows or Macintosh, FoxPro does not trap for the ON KEY LABEL event because any pending events will go through the Windows or Macintosh event handler. In MS-DOS, FoxPro's event handler handles all events (including ON KEY LABEL events) when the popup is in the open state. This is considered correct behavior because of the environment in which the program is working.
