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.
