Disabling Excel X Application Button
 

Hi All
Is there a way of disabling the Windows X - application close button - after
opening Excel. I know I can do this with a userform but not the application
as a whole.

Thanks

Nigel

It is rarely a good idea to modify thebehaviour of a standard interface

If you want to disallow the X from closing the form, use this

Private Sub UserForm_QueryClose(Cancel As Integer, CloseMode As Integer
Cancel = Tru
End Su

to the best of my knowledge you can't prevent the user
closing the application by disabling the 'x'
However, if there's an workbook open, by preventing its
closing you'd force exel to stay open.

Hi Nigel;
Try this (in ThisWorkbook module):

Private Declare Function FindWindow& Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" _
(ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String)
Private Declare Function GetSystemMenu& Lib "user32" _
(ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal bRevert As Long)

, ByVal nPosition As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long)
Private Declare Function DrawMenuBar& Lib "user32" (ByVal hWnd As Long)
Private hWnd&

Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
DeleteMenu GetSystemMenu(hWnd, 0), &HF060, 0&
DrawMenuBar hWnd

Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
GetSystemMenu hWnd, True
DrawMenuBar Application.hWnd

That is for a form, not windows.

Hi Bob,

Depends on which versions of Excel you're targeting. The Application
object in Excel 2002 and higher has an Hwnd property, In which case the
FindWindow API call in this example is unnecessary.

Hi Bob,

There were quite a few new features in 2002, the most interesting of
which (at least to me) was the new Protection object that allowed you much
more granular control over what the user could and could not do on a
protected worksheet. It's significantly better than the all or nothing
approach in Excel 2000 and earlier.

Maybe one of these days I'll even find a client that's upgraded all
their computers to Excel 2002 or higher so I can actually build a real
application that uses it. <g Right now I'm stuck in Excel 2000 backward
compatibility mode for the foreseeable future.

Thanks again Rob.

I think I also remember someone using an xlPasteFormatAndFormulas (or
something akin to that) in PasteSpecial , although that is no big deal as
you can do it already, albeit in 2 steps.

Thanks Michel, this works in my Excel 2002 environment, do you know if it
will in Excel97 ?
I do not understand all the intricacies of the subsequent hWnd debate.

Also will this work in Outlook (2002 and 98) ?

It currently is triggered when a particular workbook is activated. What
would be the Outlook trigger, that is what so you want to tie it to, and
when would it be invoked?

Hi Bob
I thought it might be possbile to include in the Outlook Application_Startup

I did try it but it did not work in its current form. I am not sure if this
code runs when Outlook opens or if it does it needs to be ordered
differently.
