Give Me A Break

I had a great question from a reader yesterday.    "When I'm performing a search on a large database and I want it to quit, how to I make it stop?"

To stop several Notes actions, such as searching in a view and opening a large database, you can press CTRL+Break and it should cancel the action.   You may have to press it a few times if the computer is really really busy and not paying attention to the keyboard.
