There is no ONCLICK in VFP (it is a DHTML event) so I guess you mean CLICK. IAC, if there is another procedure in the program call stack, that procedure will execute the next line of code after the line that called the CLICK. If the CLICK was initiated by a user event (e.g. user clicking on a button) with no calling procedure, there is nothing to return to so the return just acts to terminate the current procedure.
