PopUp property of forms

I do NOT want my users to close Access using the "x" in the application's upper-right corner. To stop that, I sent .PopUp to true on all of my forms.

This choice also stops my users from minimizing access. That is a bad side-effect, and I want to correct it.

I tried to make my own minimize button. Here is my code:
Me.Popup=False
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdAppMinimize
Me.Popup=True

When I press the button, I get a message stating that .PopUp is a readonly property :(

 
erm, to disable the access applications "X" button requires quite a bit of fiddling, are you in-fact just hiding the access application window?

also, you can disable the "X" on a form and keep the max/min button on the form, it's in the form properties.

plus, you can minimise or maximise popup forms, no need to re-set them...
