ID: Q114199

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.5b and 2.6

SYMPTOMS
Messages placed on the screen with the MESSAGE clause of the @ ... GET command are not cleared when a screen is exited. This behavior affects screens created with the Screen Builder or Screen Wizard.

RESOLUTION
Place the following code in the Cleanup snippet of the screen:

@ 24,0 CLEAR TO 24,79 When execution of the screen is terminated, this code will be executed and will clear the contents of line 24. Messages placed on the screen with the MESSAGE clause of the @ ... GET command are placed on line 24.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in FoxPro versions 2.5b and 2.6 for MS-DOS. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
