Example

// Code of [CANCEL] button
Abandon()

Syntax

Abandon()

Remarks

Operating mode

If the window contains a CANCEL button, the button code is run:

If the code of CANCEL button closes the window, the window is closed.
If the code of CANCEL button does not close the window, the window is not closed.

If the window contains no CANCEL button, the window is closed. No return value is returned.

If Abandon is called from a CANCEL button, the window is closed (even if the button code does not use Close). If a value was returned (by Close for example) in the click code of button, this value is not returned.

The call to Abandon is equivalent to Alt + F4.

Note: if the window includes several ABANDON buttons, the operating mode is undefined.

Reminder: The buttons that must be used in a window

If your window contains no edit controls, all the buttons can be NORMAL buttons.
If your window contains at least one edit control, the following types of buttons must be used:
- a VALIDATION button,
- an ABANDON button,
- a HELP button (if the controls have associated help windows),
- any other INTERRUPTION button.
