disable close and shrink buttons
Hello,
I've been looking for a way to disable the close ("X") and shrink buttons that are located at the upper-right part of the spreadsheet. This will ensure that the user uses the button containing the macros I have created. Is this possible? Please help. thanks in advance, Jason |
