undo the pick list, and allow another selection in the parent menu.

This key will undo the pressing of the <Enter> key. When the <Esc> key

 

is pressed while editing any field or selecting features of a menu, the

 

parent menu is re-entered. When the <Esc> key is pressed in any

and the user is asked whether changes can be discarded.

pressed, or if the <Esc> key is pressed, the user is returned to where

 

they were before <F9> was pressed without affecting any existing field

 

values.
