Immediately after tables are opened in load(), I have an if statement to terminate the form if tables are not up-to-date, but it will not terminate.

use Locfl. . .
if Locfl.version < 4.53
=messagebox(‘Version 4.53 is required...
thisform.release()
endif
The rest of the load-procedure should not run...
.
.
What is the appropriate method to terminate the remainder of the load procedure and release the form?
