ControlBox not working

How come when I select "No" on a form's ControlBox, the min/max and close
buttons still show up on the application bar? I want the users to use the
"exit" command button, not the "X" to close the database or form.

Re: ControlBox not working

Hi kateri,
As well as setting ControlBox to No,
set Close Button to No and Min Max Buttons to None.

Re: ControlBox not working

Thanks Jeanette. Yep, already did that. No luck. Any other ideas?

Re: ControlBox not working

The control box, close button and min max buttons on a form are completely
separate from the main application's close and min max buttons.
I have found that if I hide the application's min max buttons, users can't
easily flip backwards and forwards between other programs which they often
want to do.
