Disabling The Close Button

[Eranka]

Hi All

You can disable it on a form in the properties.
Assuming you mean the close X on the Access.Exe application, You would need a windows api call to disable it from the access program. Bear in mind that someone could still press Alt + F4 to close the active application.

There is code here that I think achieves what you want https://access-programmers.co.uk/for...d.php?t=250502

can you really 'disable' it?
since you can close a form via:

• the right corner X,
• Alt-F4
• Ctl-F4
• right-click Close
• quick Access toolbar Close button
