 * width="100%"|

ID: Q121369

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh, versions 2.5x

SYMPTOMS
When a program that contains code to open and browse a table is run from an icon, FoxPro does not display the system menu bar correctly.

NOTE: This problem does NOT occur in FoxPro 2.6a for Macintosh.

RESOLUTION
There are two ways to avoid the problem:

 Run the program from FoxPro's Command window. -or- Add a NOWAIT clause to the BROWSE command.

Steps to Reproduce Problem
1. Create a program with the following code:

USE "MACINTOSH HARDDRIVE:FOXPRO:TUTORIAL:CUSTOMER" &&Path may vary BROWSE 2. Move the .PRG file to the Macintosh Desktop. 3. Drag the .PRG file either onto the FoxPro application program or its

alias to launch FoxPro; otherwise, double-click the .PRG file. 4. When the Browse window appears, the Run and Browse menu pads will be  missing from the system menu bar. If you click where the Browse and Run menu pads should be, they will appear. Additional reference words: FoxMac 2.50b 2.50c problems weird abnormal KBCategory: kbui kbprb KBSubcategory:
