Running code when access shut down with cross

My application runs some temporary file clean up code as an onClick event
when users click the exit button. My problem is that some users don't exit
properly and simply click the cross on the top right corner of the window it
is running in.

Can I run the code somehow when that happens? If so, how?

TIA

move the code from the On Click event of the button to the on Close
event of the form containing that button.

Does this mean that Access automatically closes forms before it exits?

It is quite possible that the particular form would have its visible
attribute set at false, does that matter?

re: Running code when access shut down with cross

Access closes all forms before it closes, visible or not.

re: Running code when access shut down with cross

Great, then that's perfect, as this form is always open, but often
invisible. Problem solved. Thankyou both.

Yes!

Not in the least. I often use a "Welcome" form as a splash
screen, and hide it after 5 seconds. It contains clean-up code
as well as the set-up code.
