Erm... I don't know what you're wanting this for.

If you gave us a little background it would help.

Put your app to run in autorun folder and in the load event you have the windows startup things and in querry unload event put it detects windows exit if unloadmode=vbAppWindows

Yeah. What he said.

[V(ery) Basic: That was quite embarrassing]
[Computer: Yeah. It was.]
[V(ery) Basic: I'll go to another forum.]
[Computer: That's probably best.]

I think I should change my signature to:

'I am the most under-rated person since Judas Iscariot won the
AD31 best disciple competition'

:(

What do you guys think?

[kedaman]

LOL, Go ahead! I liked you conversation with the computer

[V(ery) Basic]

Nobody likes me

:(

I'm going to keep the signature because it woudn't make sense if I
changed it.

[Computer: It doesn't make sense as it is]
[V(ery) Basic: Oh shut up]
[Computer: Deleting win386.swp...]
[V(ery) Basic: Nooooooo&$%£"()*&$]
