Catching up closing a form

[Wortelvisje]

Hello,

What I want to do is quit simple: if the does clicks on the cross at the
right top of the screen I want to catch this event and check a few things
before closing the window. The only thing is, how can I detect somebody has
clicked on it, and how can I possible prevent the window from closing
without hiding the controlbox?

Does somebody have an idea?

Check out the Form's QueryUnload event.

For future reference, almost everybody here is using VB6 or lower. While you
may get a stray answer to VB.NET questions here, you should ask them in
newsgroups devoted exclusively to .NET programming. Look for newsgroups with
the word "dotnet" in their name.

For the news.devx.com news server, try these

vb.dotnet.discussion
vb.dotnet.technical

For the microsoft news server, try these newsgroups...

microsoft.public.dotnet.general
microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

There are some others, but these should get you started.
