These guidelines allow Windows 3.1 users to use the same methods of moving, selecting, and changing windows across all Windows-based applications. Windows created with FoxPro for Windows include Control-menu boxes and Minimize, Maximize, and Restore buttons. For a complete discussion of these window styles and terminology, see the "Getting Started" manual.
