How do i detect the OK or X Button for Pocket PC 2002, so if the user clicks the OK or X Button, it will prompt the user for something.
I tried Form_Closing and Form_Closed and Form_Deactivate, but this 3 aren't the methods i want for the program.
Can anyone help me out on this ?
You should search help on Smart Devices forum rather than this.
I have considered trying to figure that one out myself. I have read in a book on PDA programming that you can't actually trap that event because it doesn't fire anything. PDA programs don't normally close on their own, they simply hide themselves. You can see this by looking at the memory usage on the device. As long as the OS doesn't need the memory, your program will keep on running, even after you think you have exited. This can be an issue for database connections.
I also remember reading something about how to cause the PDA to terminate the program rather than hiding itself, but I haven't been able to figure out where I read that. There was some simple property change needed, but I couldn't find it the one time I looked briefly.
You will probably find that this is not a simple problem, since the form doesn't close. I was considering playing around with LostFocus, to see whether or not I could get something working, but never actually tried it. You might also try searching for API. Looking at the Mobile Dev forum, you will notice many posts by Strider with links to CF specific forums and resources that might have solutions for you.
