You just need to keep some state flags to tell you whether the form can be closed or not.

Use the best guess

It is very hard to understand the issue that you are facing using mdi windows form. Can you please rewrite your problem using proper language without any spelling errors?

The behaviour you describe is default for a modal dialog. A MDI-document is exactly that, a document-interface - not a dialog. Use a normal form, call the ShowDialog method. Done.
