how to override close

[Stephan Wright]

Hy everyone! I do want to overide the red cross for closing in my Windows.Form. I managed to do so by using e.Cancel=false in my code but well then it cancels every closecommand, meaning it cancels my command for closing via a button or via the menuitem of my trayicon. Well what I want to do is: If the user clicks the read cross (WinXP Style!) then the minimize operation is called. If the user clicks the button "Close" (on my Form) the the application is quit and if the user selects "Close" from my contextmenu of the trayicon then the application quits as well. But well how do I separate these three events, so the last two really close my application and the first one minimizes? Thanks! Stephan.

Stephan, in the button.click event use Application.Exit() instead of MyForm.Close() Kev Pearman MCP

Try using Application.Exit to really KILL it :) top secret xacc-ide 0.0.1
