Florence,

This very issue was the subject of of one the most interesting (IMHO) wrox 
threads of recent months. It's in the archive (you know, the place you 
search before posting to the forum.... :-).  

Go to http://p2p.wrox.com/archive/pro_vb/2001-10/86.asp (watch text 
wrapping) to read the thread.  I posted some code that use that API to 
disable the 'X' button (post 33 in thread) but be warned some wanted to 
put burning crosses in my front lawn for turning off the "X" ;-).  They 
are probably right in most cases, as it is generally better to control the 
unload of forms throught the QueryUnload event.
