PRB: SET SKIP OF MENU _MSYSMENU .T. Not Disabling System Menu (115221)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh 2.5b
  • Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh 2.5c
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Macintosh 3.0b
This article was previously published under Q115221

SYMPTOMS

According to the online Help and the "Language Reference" manual, the SET SKIP OF MENU _MSYSMENU .T. command lets you disable the entire FoxPro system menu bar.

However, the SET SKIP OF MENU _MSYSMENU .T. command only works as designed in both FoxPro for MS-DOS and Windows. In FoxPro for Macintosh, the SET SKIP OF MENU _MSYSMENU .T. does not disable the entire system menu, but when you attempt to select any of the menu options, FoxPro for Macintosh ignores the selection.

STATUS

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.

Steps to Reproduce Problem
