[AccessD] Preventing App Shut Down and Pop Up Forms

Yes Tony, you are quite correct here.
You can also use this method to prevent the user from closing the last form
(ie, the program) without the "permission" of the program.  You can probably
guess how, but to spell it out, merely declare a variable in the form and
set to false.  Don't allow the form to close while the variable is false.
When all your "program requirements" have been met, set the variable
(Boolean) to  true. Then when they try to close the form they can do so.

Hey All
To those of you that use "CancClose" to prevent user's from closing the 
application by clicking on  the application Close (X) icon in the upper 
right hand corner of the screen.  Make sure when you open a subform to 
turn the (assuming your parent form = Modal True ) parent form Modal = 
False. When you close the subform turn the parent form Modal = True. 
Works like a dream and the user cannot crash the program.
