Some of the command lines in your program Menus will
bring you to dialogue boxes. Dialogue boxes are similar to
Microsoft Pop-ups in that they are small windows that do not
have ID labels on the taskbar, and they lock you out of the
original window by taking precedence. But they do behave a
bit differently.
Microsoft messages pop-up
automatically when the computer senses you are doing
something wrong.
Dialogue boxes are menus that you elect to open when you are
looking to make some choices.
With Microsoft messages, your only
choice is to read it and click the OK.
A Dialogue Box contains choices. It may use radio buttons, check boxes, drop-down
menus, hyperlinks or text typing areas. After you have made your
selections you must confirm your selections by
clicking the OK button. If your hands are on the
keyboard, it is easier use the Enter key.
If you get into a dialogue box by
mistake,
you may close it by clicking the X on this little window, or
clicking the cancel button.
I find it is easier to use the Escape key on the keyboard.
