I’m Not sure what you’re trying to do but you could do something like this.

OnQueryCloseForm()

IF NOT CONFIRM(‘Do you really want to close?’) THEN EXIT(FALSE);

Maybe set it for SUPER users only?

OOoops - this the Axapta forum?

Hi there,

U can use property Frame of form as “None”.

It will show your form without frame ie without maximise, minimise and close button.

I hope , that’s you all needed.

Bye

hi,

override the can close method and return fasle;

Create a new method on WinAPI class:

static int setWindowLong(HWND _HWND, int _nIndex, int _dwNewLong)
{
    DLL         DLL;
    DLLFunction DLLFunction;
    ;

    DLL = new DLL(#UserDLL);
    DLLFunction = new DLLFunction(DLL,'SetWindowLongA');
    DLLFunction.arg(ExtTypes::DWord, ExtTypes::DWord, ExtTypes::DWord);
    DLLFunction.returns(ExtTypes::DWord);

    return DLLFunction.call(_HWND, _nIndex, _dwNewLong);
}

Define the following macros before using the following method:

#define.GWL_STYLE (0xFFFFFFF0)
#define.WS_SYSMENU(0x00080000)

Here is the code itself:

style = winapi::getWindowLong(dialog.dialogForm().formRun().hWnd(), #GWL_STYLE);
style = style & ~(#WS_SYSMENU);
winapi::setWindowLong(dialog.dialogForm().formRun().hWnd(), #GWL_STYLE, style);

This does not remove the hotkeys, like Ctrl+F4.

Let me know if it works

hi

bro code works jst fine but it also removes minmise and maximise button where as i want only want delete button to be removed.

As far as I understand, removing the SYSMENU removes the MINIMIZEBOX and MAXIMIZEBOX as well

WS_SYSMENU: 0x00080000
WS_THICKFRAME: 0x00040000
WS_MINIMIZEBOX: 0x00020000
WS_MAXIMIZEBOX: 0x00010000

Set "Status Bar Style " property as None to the Design node.
