ID: Q117204

The information in this article applies to:

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

SUMMARY

The COMMAND+PERIOD key combination generally behaves the same as the ESC key.

MORE INFORMATION

Early Macintoshes that do not have an ESC key on their keyboard use COMMAND+PERIOD to interrupt a process or close a dialog box or window.

NOTE: Unless the SET ESCAPE, ON ESCAPE, or ON KEY LABEL command has been issued, pressing the ESC key (or COMMAND+PERIOD) in FoxPro interrupts program and command execution, or closes the open dialog box or window.
