Hi Experts!
Does anyone know if it's possible to catch some kind of event when Access is
closing, so that one can ask the user whether he wants to terminate or not.
Have been looking everwhere in the documentation without being able to find
anything. Have also noted that in some cases Access asks the shutdown
question by itself. Not consistently though.
Thanks for any help with this

Use a form that is always open and in its Unload event prompt the user.
That event will fire if Access is terminated. You can set the Cancel
argument of that event to True to stop Access from closing.

If you don't have a form that is always open then open a hidden form at
startup specifically for this purpose.

Have a hidden form open at startup and ask the question in it's Unload
event.
