Intercept client attempt to disconnect??

[MiFe]

Does anyone know how to intercept a Terminal Service Client attempt to
disconnect??

The reason:
When a disconnect is attempted, I want to check to be sure a specific
application is not left running. However, I can not just End the
application process abruptly, because it will leave data open. Ideally, I
would like to send a message at this point saying "You must close X
application before disconnecting/ending this session."

This application uses a database, and I need to be sure this user is logged
out, otherwise another user may be restricted access to performing certain
functions.

Are you the developer of the database application? You can make your
application TS aware and monitor for session disconnections and
logoffs. See WTSRegisterSessionNotification in MSDN.

If you register for the WTS_REMOTE_DISCONNECT and/or the
WTS_SESSION_LOGOFF, you can close the database at that point.

Thank you Ivan.
I will pass this information on to our lead developer.
I noticed that this Terminal Services API is contained in the wtsapi32.dll.
I tried adding this to a vb project, but I can not....Is this API not
available in the vb??
