Well, you say "I doubt that", but, for example, when I run my EatBloat form to export all objects as text, it prompts me to "do you want to save Eatbloat" and do I want to save "mainmenu" forms before the export. It does this even though both forms are compiled, compacted, etc and have definitely not been changed. Somehow, a flag gets unset on these two forms. One has a timer set to it, the other does not. Apart from that I can see nothing out of the ordinary on them. So, maybe it is a bug. Best to create a new form and the copy-paste the controls into it and then the code.

Hi Max, I do the same thing using a hidden form. But on their system, they get asked if they want to save the form BEFORE my hidden form's unload event is fired. That's why this is difficult - between the time the user pushes the red 'X' button on the Access window and when the unload event fires, Access asks if an open form's design should be changed, and there is no code I can hook into to investigate the problem. The form's design doesn't change in form view, only the underlying query for the form's data. This has the behavior of a bug in Access, but I doubt that.

Aha! Well spotted. Bet you're an analyst.... Can probably remove that as well - actually you can. I do it all the time. On my main-menu form I prevent that from closing until you click MY button and that in turn prevents Access from closing. There we go....can't keep a good man down...LOL Max -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Heenan, Lambert Sent: 15 January 2010 17:21 To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] Form Closing Problem - New(?) He said "Access window's X button", not the Forms' X.

Sure you can. It is one of the options if the form's properties.

I don't think that I can remove the Access window's X button. In any case, all my customers want that X button, and the problem is only happening at one customer, and not on my PC either.

Dan, why not remove the X and force closure from the button.
