[AccessD] Disable Control Box with Form Maximized?

Doris:

Thanks for responding!  I didn't realize the Form_Unload event could be
cancelled.  That does work and I can check it there.

However, I'd really like to just make the controlbox vanish so they don't
even have the choice.  But, if I set the Control Box property to No for
the form on the Properties Sheet, it only applies when the form is NOT
maximized.  If the form is maximized, the silly thing reappears in the
upper right hand corner.

Or is there another way to set that property?
