How to interrupt or cancel an SQL process in Personal Oracle 7.3.4?

According to the documentation in 'SQL*Plus Getting Started for Windows Platforms' it should be possible to interrupt an SQL operation (such as a long-running SELECT or UPDATE) by using CTRL+C or by using the "Cancel" option on the "File" menu.

Neither of these works for me: CTRL+C does nothing, and the drop- down menus don't drop down. Is this normal or should I look for a problem with my installation? I am running Personal Oracle 7.3.4 on a stand-alone PC with no network connections, using Windows95.

At present I am forced to cancel the task by using CTRL-ALT-DEL or to stop the Oracle database? Is there a risk of corruption in using either of these, or can I rely on Oracle rolling back the interrupted transaction in all cases?
