Detecting Form Closure when X is clicked

[peek]

This has probably be asked before but I'm trying to trap the event
before a user closes the main form of VB.NET application to show an
error message if there are unsaved changes. Can anyone point me in
the right direction?

Use the Form.Closing event. This will work if they hit F4 or the X button.
