I just wanted to know about terminating a program properly. I'm aware that
using the END statement will terminate a vb program, but what about when you
click the x button in the top right corner of a form? I'd like to be able to
prompt the user with an option to save their work before exiting. I can get
a message box to appear by placing code in the form_terminate() function,
but i can't stop it from terminating.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Dave
