micrsoft Access Close Button

[Guest]

is it posible to disable the main Microsoft Access Close button on the window
frame ( Red X )

No, but you can stop the application from closing if people click on it.

1. Open a form in invisible mode as the first form that opens with your
application.
2. In that form's Open Event set a boolean variable (you can call it
something like OkToClose) to False. Cancel the close of this form if the
variable is False.
3. Use a close button on your main menu form that sets the value of that
variable to True only when the button is clicked.

Is it possible though to disable those maximise and minimise buttons, or even
hide them completly (last bit includes the close button) not on the forms I
know how to do that
