Cancel Close

[WJProctor]

HI there, on a form closing sub i have a msgbox asking if you want to close the form. If i click No how can i stop the form from closing its self? Is there a simple way, in 6 you used to be able to do a cancel or something.

Regards

JP

There is a boolean in the "e" event arguments that is usually named "Cancel"

e.Cancel = True

Set this to True, I believe. I am doing it from memory. You should check help on this.

That will keep the form open.

It works, I use it all the time.

Somtimes, the easy answer is the hardest to find.

Private Sub Form1_Closing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Closing
If (MessageBox.Show("Do You Wish To Exit", "Warning", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation) = DialogResult.No) Then
e.Cancel = True 'Do not close form
End If
End Sub
