Is there a way to disable the exit button on a windows form without having to import the some external .dll's? I disable the exit button by importing dll's using the following code but I don't like it. Is there a simpler (built-in) way?
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
hMenu = GetSystemMenu(this.Handle, false);
}
private const uint SC_CLOSE = 0xf060;
private const uint MF_GRAYED = 0x01;
private IntPtr hMenu;
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern IntPtr GetSystemMenu(IntPtr hWnd, bool bRevert);
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern int EnableMenuItem(IntPtr hMenu, uint wIDEnableItem, uint wEnable);
// handle the form's Paint and Resize events
private void Form1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
EnableMenuItem(hMenu, SC_CLOSE, MF_GRAYED);
}
private void Form1_Resize(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
EnableMenuItem(hMenu, SC_CLOSE, MF_GRAYED);
}
