PRB: Connection Designer Doesn't Have OK or Cancel Buttons

Last reviewed: April 30, 1996

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 3.0

SYMPTOMS

The Connection Designer does not have an OK or Cancel button. You can open the Connection Designer by typing CREATE CONNECTION or selecting the Connection Designer from the New File dialog.

CAUSE

The Connection Designer is a designer. It is not a dialog box, but a modeless window, so just like the Form Designer, it does not include an OK or Cancel button.

RESOLUTION

You can save a connection by selecting File Save As, and you can cancel it by closing the window without saving changes.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

The Connection Designer provides an interface to create a connection to use with views. Connections are saved in a database. For more information about the Connection Designer, search for the "Connection Designer" topic in the Visual FoxPro Help menu.
