Remarks

Only one control in a picture can be the Cancel button. When the Cancel property is set to True for one control, it is automatically set to False for all other controls in the picture. When a control's Cancel property setting is True and the picture is the active picture, the user can choose the control by clicking it, pressing the ESC key, or pressing ENTER when the button has the focus.

The Cancel property of a control can be set to True only if the control is a pushbutton control or any control that behaves like a button i.e., marked with OLEMISC_ACTSLIKEBUTTON flag.
