For forms, there's a CloseBox property. Set it to false (no code needed)
and the red X in the corner disappears.

For the application, you can't actually remove the X, but you can get
similar functionality. Check out www.mvps.org/access/forms.

I am wondering if there is a way to disable the "X" used to close the Access application window? I know how to disable it for individual forms, but I would like to disable it for the application in general and force users to use a button on the switchboard to close (because I run important code on the close of the database from that button). Any ideas are always appreciated. Thanks!

Hello, I have a form that contains a listview on the left side and a column of buttons on the right side. Only some of the buttons do I want enabled all the time. The other buttons should be enabled only if something is selected in the listview. That part specifically works but not very well. It seems that I can only get the buttons to disable if I click off the text of the items in the listview but still within about 10-20 pixels of...

Hi everyone, Now that I've found a way to disable the ribbon etc. I need to disable the application maximize button. I have looked at this post and implemented it, but it disables the close and minimize buttons as well. Is there a simple command I can use to disable just this button or any way I can adapt the cited post to do just that? Kind regards, Ken.
