Program termination
I have a menu entry that Ends my program. Works as expected. However, if I terminate the program by clicking on the window close icon (little red X in upper right corner of window), the GUI goes away but task manager shows that it is still loaded in memory and running. Is there a way to catch the Window Close event? What am I missing?Running XP Pro SP2 & VB6.

Ok - now I'm :confused: . If form_unload() can be used to capture the click of the Close window event, I just don't see how. I'm talking about the red X as shown here picture link (http://members.cox.net/krkaplan/x.gif) . I don't know how to detect that event. It seems like it is outside of the VB environment. No?

When the user clicks the red X to close a form, the form's Unload event fires. From the Form_Unload event procedure, you can call your Exit menu code (I recommend moving the code to a Sub procedure and calling it from both the Exit menu's click event and the Form_Unload event).
