We need more information (VFP version, sample code etc.) but I'll make some guesses:

- If this is an .EXE being run directly from Windows, either CANCEL or QUIT should terminate it and return to Windows. If they do not, are you sure they are actually being called? Is there anything else going on like ActiveX controls on forms?

- If this is an .APP, or an .EXE being run from the VFP dev environment, and you're trying to run both of those commands in that order, only the CANCEL will be run, which will cause it to return to VFP and not to Windows. The QUIT is never reached in that circumstance.
