# PRB: Cancel Hot Key Doesn't Work in Wizard Application

ID: Q114487

The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, version 2.6
- Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, version 2.6

## SYMPTOMS

When the initial screen of the Wizard application is active, pressing the C key to choose the Cancel push button does not cancel the execution of the application.

## CAUSE

This is the expected behavior of FoxPro. When the Wizard application starts, the cursor in the introductory screen is in the list box titled "Select a Wizard." Whenever a list box is active within a FoxPro screen and a key is pressed, the active list object searches for the closest matching entry in the active object. Since the Select A Wizard list box contains no items beginning with the letter "C," no action occurs.

## RESOLUTION

### To Close the Wizard Application in FoxPro Version 2.6 for MS-DOS

Click the Cancel push button with the mouse, or press the TAB key to select (highlight) the Cancel push button, and then press the ENTER key.

### To Close the Wizard Application in FoxPro Version 2.6 for Windows

Click the Cancel push button with the mouse, press ALT+C, or press the TAB key to select (highlight) the Cancel push button, and then press the ENTER key.
