BUG: Page Down/Page Up Keys Do Not Clear READ MODAL in Visual FoxPro 5.0 (173880)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 5.0
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 5.0a
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 6.0
This article was previously published under Q173880 SYMPTOMS
The Page Up and Page Down keys in Visual FoxPro 5.0x no longer clear a READ
MODAL command. These keys do clear READ MODAL commands in Visual FoxPro 3.0
and 3.0b and in FoxPro 2.x versions. The Up Arrow and Down Arrow keys clear
the READ MODAL as in the earlier versions.
RESOLUTION
Use an ON KEY LABEL command to trap for a Page Up or Page Down key, and
then issue a CLEAR READ. For example:
ON KEY LABEL pgdn CLEAR READ && or pgup to trap for the Page Up key
x=" "
@ 2,2 SAY "This is a test " GET x
READ MODAL
ON KEY LABEL pgdn && or pgup
Upgrading to Visual FoxPro Service Pack 2 does not fix this problem.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed
at the beginning of this article.
