Form_Closing + Shutting down Computer

[Eddie]

Hi All,

In my application, every time the user "Close" the form, I cancel the close
and I put a NotifyIcon in the systray. Here is my code :

Private myForm_Closing( ... ... ...) Handels MyBase.Closing
e.Cancel = True
End sub

My problem is : When the user try to shut Down his computer, My application
cannot close, so the computer does not shut down...

How May I know if the form is closing because the close click the X button
or because the computer is shutting down ?
Thx for your help...

Thank you Ken...

It works only if I Start My application with a Form.
The problem is that I Start My Application without form... Only with a
NotifyIcon... like this :

-------------------------------
Public Sub Main

Dim oForm as New Form1
oForm.NotifyIco n.Text = "Test"
oForm.NotifyIco n.Icon = oForm.Icon
oForm.NotifyIco n.Visible = True

Application.Run ()

End Sub
-------------------------------

If I don't start with a Form, the event is not fired...

Any Ideas ?

Thanks again...

Eddie

Are you sure you set up a handler? Post the code you used to handle the
'SessionEnding' event.

I tried to set up a handler in many sub...
---------------------------------------
Public Sub Main

Dim oForm as New Form1
oForm.NotifyIco n.Text = "Test"
oForm.NotifyIco n.Icon = oForm.Icon
oForm.NotifyIco n.Visible = True

AddHandler Microsoft.Win32 .SystemEvents.S essionEnding, New
SessionEndingEv entHandler(Addr essOf SessionIsEnding )
Application.Run ()

End Sub
---------------------------------------
I also tried to Set up the Handler in the Form_Load Event...

If I start My Applicatiotion directly with the Form, it works perfectly...

Any Help will be appreciate...
