    Yo,

    is it possible to manipulate the controlbox of the form (with api's or something)
    so you can put your own buttons next to for example the x? without having to create your own toolbar?
    I've seen it happen in alot of programs...

    Thnx

    Short answer: Yes
    Long answer: Way too long to post here!

    Try searching MSDN on this topic, they usually have good examples deep down if you search hard enough. Otherwise, if you want you can try taking a look at a book called "Dan Appleman's Visual Basic Programmer’s Guide to the Win32 API". He has entire sections on topics like this.
