[VB Begginer Kid]

is there a way to disable the three windows buttons in the top right corner of the window? and disable move and resize?

Q1 : Set the ControlBox property to False (takes it away, doesn't disable)

Q2.5 : Set the BorderStyle property to Fixed Single

Set the properties of the form :


control box - false
movable - false
border - single fixed

You can also use the RemoveMenu API function to disable all these if you wish to do it in runtime.

Private Declare Function GetSystemMenu Lib "User32" _
(ByVal hWnd As Integer, ByVal bRevert As Integer) As Integer
 
Private Declare Function RemoveMenu Lib "User32" (ByVal hMenu _
As Integer, ByVal nPosition As Integer, ByVal wFlags As Integer) _
As Integer
 
Const MF_BYPOSITION = &H400
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    RemoveMenu GetSystemMenu(hWnd, 0), 0, MF_BYPOSITION
    RemoveMenu GetSystemMenu(hWnd, 0), 0, MF_BYPOSITION
    RemoveMenu GetSystemMenu(hWnd, 0), 0, MF_BYPOSITION
    RemoveMenu GetSystemMenu(hWnd, 0), 0, MF_BYPOSITION
    RemoveMenu GetSystemMenu(hWnd, 0), 0, MF_BYPOSITION
    RemoveMenu GetSystemMenu(hWnd, 0), 0, MF_BYPOSITION
    RemoveMenu GetSystemMenu(hWnd, 0), 0, MF_BYPOSITION
End Sub
