Works 1.x: Screen Corruption When Using MS-Key During Charting

PSS ID Number: Q29022 Article last modified on 06-12-1996

1.00 1.05

MS-DOS

The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Works for MS-DOS, versions 1.0 and 1.05

Screen corruption may occur where MS-Key menu commands should appear when MS-Key is invoked during charting. The following example duplicates this problem:

  1. Activate MS-Key while viewing a chart.

  2. Press the ESC key twice to return to Spreadsheet view.

  3. Activate MS-Key again; MS-Key’s prompt will appear in the middle of the screen.

  4. Press the ESC key, followed by the ALT key, to activate the menu bar.

    The bar appears to be a mix of MS-Key menus and Works menus.

This problem does not occur in Works 2.0 or 3.0.
