Disable the Close button for Access?

[Gulf Coast Electric]

Can the Close button be disabled for Access?
If so how?
Using Custom Menu!

Don't think so! That is an issue for your operating system (the window
manager)

Thanks, any ideas on how to make the code run on DB startup?
That is disable the Close button?
I followed the article and it works fine.
I am using a Custom Menu with a File Menu with a Exit command on it.

I goofed once, now I'll try not to repeat.

* create a form
* have its Open event run your code
* set the form in the Startup options (Tools menu, I believe, I don't
have an english version here to check)

Hi,

I'm a little confused by your response.
You said it works fine, but you want to know how to make it run on Startup.
If you follow steps 11-14 in the articles it describes setting up an
Autoexec macro.
This macro will run every time the database is opened (unless you hold the
shift key).
The "X" button should then be disabled.

Is that not working for you??
Which Access version?
Works fine here on 97 and 2000.
