SET ESCAPE
Toggle Esc as a READ exit key
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
SET ESCAPE ON | off | <xlToggle>
Arguments
ON enables Esc as a READ exit key.
OFF disables Esc as a READ exit key.
<xlToggle> is a logical expression that must be enclosed in
parentheses. A value of true (.T.) is the same as ON, and a value of
false (.F.) is the same as OFF.
Description
If SET ESCAPE is ON, Esc terminates the current READ. Any changes made
to the current Get object are lost, and validation with RANGE or VALID
is bypassed. When SET ESCAPE is OFF and the user presses Esc, the key
press is ignored. With SET KEY, however, you can reassign Esc for
special handling, regardless of the status of SET ESCAPE.
Files Library is CLIPPER.LIB.
