    Confirm Exit in a Mdi form?

    Hallo,

    I have a Mdi form in which I show a MessageBox if the user tries to
    close it. If the user clicks YES, then the form closes; if it clicks
    NO then it aborts.

    I added the following lines in my form Closing event:

    If MessageBox.Show ("Are you sure do you want to exit?", gsAppName,
    MessageBoxButto ns.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon. Question,
    MessageBoxDefau ltButton.Button 2) = Windows.Forms.D ialogResult.Yes Then
    Me.Close()
    End If

    But it doesn't work. So I was wondering if someone is so kind to point
    me to the error.

    I'm using VB.NET

    Thanks in advance.

    PS My apologies for my bad english.

    Best Regards,
    David Desmet

      David,
      Try this one:

      Private Sub Form1_Closing(B yVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
      System.Componen tModel.CancelEv entArgs) Handles MyBase.Closing

      If MessageBox.Show ("Are you sure do you want to exit?",
      "gsAppName",Mes sageBoxButtons. YesNo,
      MessageBoxIcon. Question,Messag eBoxDefaultButt on.Button2) =
      Windows.Forms.D ialogResult.Yes Then
      Application.Exi t()
      Else
      e.Cancel = True
      End If
      End Sub

      Thanks,

          If MessageBox.Show ("Are you sure do you want to exit?", gsAppName, _
          MessageBoxButto ns.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon. Question, _
          MessageBoxDefau ltButton.Button 2) = Windows.Forms.D ialogResult.No
          Then
          e.cancel = True
          End If

          Note: DialogResult.Ye s changed to DialogResult.No .

          You don't have to (or must not) call Me.Close because it must have been
          called before already; otherwise the FormClosing event would not have been
          fired.

              David,

              Just from my memory.

              DirectCast(me.M DIParent,TheMai nForm).Close()

              Would do the trick

              (I am not so busy with all the kind of tricks in VBNet for VB6 users, so
              maybe it can be done with less code)

              Cor
