Disable Hotkeys

Hi,

I am looking for a way of disabling the close hotkey, ctrl + w.

In a previous post, it was suggested running the macro:

Application.onkey "^w", ""

would work, and it does, as long as you are not in Edit mode.

In edit mode, ctrl + w still gives you the close prompt. Is there any
way of disabling it completely?

Thanks for any help

I've never seen a meaningful macro run when in edit mode. So I don't think
you're going to find a macro solution.
