terminate MDI child windows with <vk_escape>
Posted: Thu May 02, 2013 06:52 PM

I created an MDI window with 2 mdichild windows.

My child windows require clicking the close "X" button to shut them down.

how can I make the escape key shut down/close each MDICHILD windows without having to touch the mouse?

thank you

   // key handler to trap key strokes  ESC to quit  //
   oWind:bKeyDown := {|nKey| IF(nKEY = 27, oWIND:END(), ) }
