Close box vs. programmed Save and Close

E

el zorro

I used to create a close button on my data entry forms
routinely, programming them to execute the following code
on click:

DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu,
acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.Close

But now I'm getting lazy, and wondering if I can get the
same effect by directing my users to click on the
little "X" box in the upper right corner of their form.
What do you think?

Same difference AFAIK. The only problem is that a lot of users got confused
between the Form Close (X) button and the Access Application Close (X)
button, especially if you maximize the Form.

Personally, I have the Close CommandButton on the Form. If you are lazy,
you can always use the CommandButton Wizard.
