Remove close button

[NigelShaw]

Hi,

can you completely remove the close button on a form altogether rather than disable it? not the actual application, just the form.

I set the Control Box and the Close Button property to No - see Format Property tab

If it's already disabled, can you also make it hidden?

That is a new one to me. I haven't come across this one before. Mine definitely disappear when I do that. Sorry - not sure what to suggest.

The control box is definitely set to No? THis hides all 3 buttons at the top regardless of individual settings

Hi Kiwiman,

control box is definately set to NO.

its not all doom tho' as i have jiggled a routine that hides the application window close button to hide the form one instead

cheers

That's a Tabbed Documents thing. It can't be removed unless you remove Tabbed Docs and go classic.

There might be a way to use an API to get it removed (with Tabbed Docs selected) but I won't bother.

thanks

Well in a Pop-Up form, Kiwiman's suggestion should have done. What went wrong?

Hey VB

i dont know why just like i dont why Access does other bizarre thing that ar eunexplained.... i wonder though if my workaround would remove the close button from the tabbed forms as you mentioned previously the Access version wouldnt work?

i'll try it and see.
