QuickBasic 4.50 QB.EXE Does Not Allow CTRL+P, ESC Sequence (39382)
This article was previously published under Q39382
SYMPTOMS
The QuickBasic Version 4.50 editor will not allow you to insert the
escape key code (ASCII 27) into a Basic program by pressing CTRL+P
followed by either ESC or CTRL+[.
NOTE: QB.EXE Versions 4.00 and 4.00b do allow you to type a CTRL+P
followed by either ESC or CTRL+[ and thereby insert a CHR$(27) byte
into either a REMark or a quoted string.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in Version 4.50. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
