 RESOLVED - prevent user from closing via taskbar icon
Hello,
I have a VB2010 forms app running primarily on Win 7 boxes. In the app itself, programming is such that the user cannot exit the program without appropriate prompts (i.e. "are you sure", etc.) and form close buttons are disabled when appropriate, etc.
However, if the user hovers over the program's icon on the task bar, and then hovers the resulting image, that image has a "red X" which they can click on and the app will close, no questions asked. Is there a way to prevent this behavior? (Setting "Show in Taskbar" to false is not an option as the app must show in the taskbar. The only other option I could think of was to code for the FormClosing event and test the CloseReason for each and every one of the numerous forms in this application, which seems cumbersome.)
Your help is appreciated ...
Thanks,
Bruce
