disable control box of a report 1

[ecannelora]

is it possible to disable the control box (or just the close option) on a report? I want to be able to better control the flow of my app.

When a user closes a report, I want him to be able to change his mind and leave the report open, or close with out updating records, or close AND update records. If I have a modal form to close the report, I can do that, but the user would still be able to close the report with the control box. any ideas?

Just set the Control Box property to No.

does it have to be done through VBA? I don't see the property listed in the properties dialog box

No, you do not need VBA to do this.

Put the report in Design view and check format proerties.

Should be a Control Box property.

Set it to No.

for Access 2000? There is no such property. Am I just being blind?
