[AccessD] Hide Close button in application window

Short of sub-classing the application window, the answer is no. However,
your workaround is to have the application's main form monitor the value of
a form scope variable. The variable will be set to False when the
appropriate "Close the application button" is clicked. 

Then define an Unload event for the application's main form. The unload
event has a Cancel parameter. When set to True it prevents the form from
unloading. So if the uses just hits the Access window's close button, the
form's unload event will be cancelled and the application will continue to
run. Of course you would also put a MsgBox call in the unload event telling
the user's to hit the correct button.
