SYMPTOMS
In FOXAPP.APP, if you type the name of a .DBF file in the Table Name box and you then press the TAB key several times to move to the Cancel push button, Cancel is skipped and Advanced is selected (highlighted) instead. If you press TAB again, Cancel will be selected.

The Create push button is also not in the proper tab order.

1. Open the file FOXAPP.PJX.

2. Edit the screen set APPSCX.SCX.

3. From the Screen menu, choose Object Order.

4. Modify the order in which the objects are accessed.

5. When you are finished modifying the order, save the screen and

regenerate FOXAPP.APP.

DO Foxapp.app 2. In the Table Name box, type the name of a .DBF file. 3. Press TAB until the Generate push button is selected.

4. Press TAB again.

Instead of Cancel, the Advanced push button is selected. 5. Press TAB again. The Cancel push button is now selected. Additional reference words: FoxDos FoxWin 2.50 2.50a 2.50b 2.60 KBCategory: kbprg kbprb kbcode KBSubcategory: FxtoolGeneral
