Default Access program control box

Hi Does anyone know if the shutdown "X" in the main app window of Access can be disabled. I really need users to close the application using the close button on my form but many use the control box "X"
Thanks Peter

Make your form modal. This will prevent interaction with any other feature unless they finsih work in the form. You can remove the red X button from the form so users won't use that as well.
