Disable Access Close Button not Form Close Button?
hello Mark
you declare the variable as public in the declarations
section of the form (just under Option Explicit And option
compare...) and then set it's value to true in the click
event of the button (you dont need to reset it's value to
False since boolean variables are false until changed)
good luck
