c# Maximize, Minimize and Close buttons on form

Question

Hi Is there any way to find out if the close button (x button on form) was clicked. However without involving FormClosing and FormClosed events ?

Answer 1

Without those Events? That's a tough one...no, I don't think so.

I mean, you hook yourself into the message pump of the form to figure out if those actions were invoked, but seems like a little overkill to me.

Answer 2

You can use PreProcessMessage to see the message on its' way to your form.
