Q145902: XCLN: Pressing ESC Key Does Not Close Profiles Dialog

Article: Q145902
Product(s): Microsoft Exchange
Version(s): 4.0 5.0
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): kbother
Last Modified: 15-MAR-1999

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client, versions 4.0, 5.0 
- Microsoft Exchange Windows 95/98 client, versions 4.0, 5.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you open the Microsoft Exchange Profile dialog box, you cannot close it by
pressing the ESC key. You must close the dialog box by selecting the Close
button, or by using the control box in the upper-right corner of the dialog box
window.

NOTE: The ESC key does work successfully in other sections of the Mail and Fax
applet.


CAUSE
=====

Because this window is not a child window of an application, this behavior is by
design.

Additional query words: escape cancel
