Form Problem 1

[jay2502]

How Can make a form only close with code? I have taken the X (close button away) but can still right click on the window in the toolbar and close it how can i stop this?

Have a boolean value that is set to false (you set it to true in the code when you want to be able to exit) and in the form_unload event if the value is false then set the cancel flag which will stop the form unloading.

Hope this helps

Thanks that makes sense but how would I do the Cancel flag?

 

[HarleyQuinn]

Something like this:

Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
If mblnCancel = False Then Cancel = -1
End Sub

That will stop the form unloading if the Boolean you set up is set to False.

Hope this helps
