Article: Q147144
Product(s): Microsoft Exchange
Version(s): WINDOWS:4.0,5.0
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): kbusage

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 window, you can not close it
by pressing the Escape (ESC) key. You must closed it by selecting the Close
button, or by using the control box in the upper-right hand corner of the dialog
window.

NOTE: The ESC key does successfully work in other sections of the Microsoft
Exchange 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 exchange
