Re: RE: x button

Be sure to let a Windows Shutdown call to go through or your user will
really be upset by having to press the power button to shut down
Windows!

There used to be a "shutdown source" (not the right name, I expect) code
of some kind that said where the close message was coming from. I have
no idea how to treat it these days.

Just a thought...

Re: RE: x button

The e.CloseReason property of the FormClosing event argument tells you why the
form is closing.
