Re: Hide the "X" on a Windows Form

Yeah, that is what my research suggests, it's not possible.

I thought about handling form closing too but this is more of a visual then
a behavioral requirement.

Thanks

I don't believe there is a way to do that unless you want to create your own
owner-drawn form.
You can prevent the form from closing when the x is clicked by using the
Form_Closing event and setting the Cancel property of the CancelEventArgs
argument to true.
