    Re: Disable Close Button and Prevent Form Being Moved

    Hi JM

    I am using both of your classes after loading a form (frmSixQs) from a child form (frmProfiles). All runs as expected, except when I click off the form (frmSixQs), it closes.

    How do I make my form focused exclusively until the user closes it intentionally?

    That doesn't sound like anything that would be caused by my code but I'll run some tests just to make sure.

    I tested my classes with all combinations of Show and ShowDialog with 1, 2 and 3 forms and saw no such behaviour, so I can only assume that it's something to do with your own code. What happens if you remove my classes? Do you still see that behaviour?
