I personally do not expect clicking the 'X' to save any changes. But remember, I still use V6 so I have no pony in this race. I was just pointing out what Microsoft says about the subject. Of course, what MS says is only a "guideline", so developers are free to ignore it if they choose. >Where no >changes have been made I do not think that VB6 can tell, so it plays safe >when the "X" is selected to close. I am not a VB6 programmer so I don't know for sure ... but I would think that this is a problem that can be fixed. *** Maybe an "Are you sure?" dialog should pop up when a user Cancels or Closes(X) the window when there are pending changes. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
