The Close Button Does Not Appear or Is Disabled

Q121911

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows 95

-

SYMPTOMS
After you start your application, the Close button (the button displaying an "x" in the upper-right corner of the window) is either dim or does not appear at all.

Applications known to exhibit this behavior include:


 * Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5 and 2.6

CAUSE
Some applications draw their own caption and title bars. This prevents the Windows 95 Close button from appearing or being enabled.

Microsoft FoxPro for Windows
The Close button is dim in FoxPro for Windows because FoxPro deletes all the items in the System menu. It then enters its own items into the System menu, thus preventing Windows 95 from properly executing the Close button detection code.

Currently, no workaround is available for this behavior.
