Close Button

I have a form with the Close Button property set to 'No'. It is disabled
when the form isn't maximized. (The white 'X' in a red box) When the form is
Maximized, a different close button is enabled (The black 'X' in the grey
box). Sometimes it is visible and sometimes not. When it is visible, the
users can still exit the form using the black 'X' and it causes many
problems. I want them to use the Exit Button I made on the form which
verifies data. I would really appreciate any ideas. Thank you,

If you make it a popup without a border, when maximized it will cover the
entire screen without any close button and not way of doing anything without
using:

Alt+Tab or Ctrl+Alt+Del

except with the buttons you gave them. You can also log when the app closes
and when the Exit button is pushed. If the times aren't within a second of
each other, you can confront the user who isn't following the rules.
