Richard,
Lars, is correct in his reply. You would need to use API functions to
disable MapInfo system menus. However you can intercept the file/exit menu
option (or any other menu options) with alter menu command as in the
following example:
declare sub main
declare sub mycode
Sub Main
alter menu item 113 calling MyCode
End Sub
Sub MyCode
if ask("are you sure","yes","no") then
end mapinfo
end if
End Sub
This will at least give you a chance to clean up in some circumstances.

Subject: EndHandler not working
I have an MB application that creates various temporary data in tables and
in the Cosmetic layer. None of this needs to saved permanently, and when
the user closes MapInfo I want it to end neatly without prompting to save
the temporary data.
I tried using an EndHandler routine to clean up these tables, but MI
doesn't call the EndHandler until AFTER prompting to save the data.
Is this normal operation for EndHandler, or I am I not using it properly?
How else can I stop the unwanted prompts?
