How to Record Macros with FoxPro for Macintosh

ID: Q109231

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Macintosh, version 3.0b
• Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh, version 2.5b

Many Macintosh keyboards do not have function keys F1 through F12. However, you can still begin and stop recording macros on these systems.

1. To begin recording a macro, choose Macros from the Program menu. If you

   are using Visual FoxPro for Macintosh, click Macros from the Tools menu.
   Click the Record button. After you define a key combination for the
   macro and click OK, the following message will appear:

      Recording <keystroke combo>. SHIFT + F10 to stop

2. To stop recording the macro, press COMMAND+OPTION+SHIFT+0 instead of

   SHIFT+F10.
