ID: Q101021

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5 and 2.5a
Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.5 and 2.5a

The SET SYSMENU TO DEFAULT command normally returns to the FoxPro standard system menu.

To redefine the default FoxPro menu system, define any needed changes to the menu system, and then issue the following command:

   SET SYSMENU SAVE

The currently defined menu system will function as the default menu system for the current FoxPro session. To return to the FoxPro standard system menu, either quit FoxPro or issue the following command:

   SET SYSMENU NOSAVE

NOTE: The Run menu will not be available after the SET SYSMENU NOSAVE command is issued. To redisplay the Run menu, issue the following command:

   DO foxpro\foxstart.app

FOXSTART.APP is an application included in the FoxPro program directory.
