ControlBox not working

K

kateri4482

How come when I select "No" on a form's ControlBox, the min/max and close
buttons still show up on the application bar? I want the users to use the
"exit" command button, not the "X" to close the database or form.

Hi kateri,
As well as setting ControlBox to No,
set Close Button to No and Min Max Buttons to None.

The control box, close button and min max buttons on a form are completely
separate from the main application's close and min max buttons.
I have found that if I hide the application's min max buttons, users can't
easily flip backwards and forwards between other programs which they often
want to do.
