"Are you sure u want to exit?"

[ThePentiumGuy]

under which event do u make it so that when u click the X button it displays, "Are you sure u want to exit" (yes or no)

 

i tried form1.closing and form1.closed

but it doesnt work

which event do u need.

[dynamic_sysop]

   Private Sub Form1_Closing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Closing
       If MsgBox("are you sure you want to quit", MsgBoxStyle.OKCancel, Application.ProductName) = MsgBoxResult.OK Then
           e.Cancel = False
       Else
           e.Cancel = True
       End If

 

that should sort you out :)

form.closing is used when you want to display the "are you sure you want to close prompt"

Private Sub frmT_Closing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Closing
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to close?", MsgBoxStyle.YesNo, "Close?") = MsgBoxResult.Yes Then
Application.exit
else   'don't exit app
       e.Cancel = True
       
end if
   End Sub

ok thanx,

btw whats the dif between what

capwrmt said and what dynamic_sysop said

.. lol they're the same except the End Sub

[dynamic_sysop]

if Cancel is False then the application can exit , if it's true then it wont.

both them ways provide the same result anway thats the main thing:p
