Canceling validation

[hhrafn]

I have a form where a user inputs into a few fields and I validate them for correct format ect.. I do a e.Cancel = true; in my Validating event. I can put a e.Cancel = false; into my FormClosing event to get it to close with out prompting for correction in my fields. my problem is that I can't get a "close" button to do the same as the close (top right X) on my form. How do I set the "e.Close" to false or essentially the samt for my form in whole? Thanks, H

Set the Button's CausesValidation property to false. -- LuisR

I'd like the form to ignore the validation requirements and close the form. For now the e.cancel feature doesn't allow me to close a form via a close button. I can only close by hitting the X in the top right corner. Probalby because there I can access the event that supports this cancel feature and I can set it to false.
