this may be very simple, and i'm sure it should be... but when the 'x' button is pressed, i don't want the form to unload completely, i just want it to hide... And its really not happening for me!

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
 
This may do it;

Private Sub Form_QueryUnload(Cancel As Integer, UnloadMode As Integer)

If UnloadMode = vbFormControlMenu Then
Cancel = True
Me.Hide
End If

End Sub
 
My previous assumed vb6 but you require VBA so;

Private Sub UserForm_QueryClose(Cancel As Integer, CloseMode As Integer)

If CloseMode = vbFormControlMenu Then
Cancel = True
Me.Hide
End If


End Sub
 
i'm sorry, but it doesn't seem to do very much. Do i have to trigger this sub with anything when the form is deactivated or anything? Its not the end of hte world if i can't do this, but it would make the system a lot more user friendly

Thanks a lot
 
Never mind just got your second reply, that worked a treat! thank you very much!
