Action before @IDCLOSEWINDOW

[Jerry Muelver]

I have a "clean up dirty file" routine I use when the user chooses "Quit" from the menu. I want to plug that same routine into action when the user clicks on the "X" in the corner of the window to quit, instead of using the menu.

Code Select Expand


case @IDCLOSEWINDOW
IF dirtyfile = 1 then GOSUB doDirtyFile
run = 0


Doesn't work. I'm guessing that's because the window is already closed by the time the @IDCLOSEWINDOW message hits the loop. Any suggestions to fix, or workaround?

See what @IDDESTROY does.

Thanks, Larry. I can put this puppy to bed, now!

Should work fine, of course.  The X in the title bar sends the @IDCLOSEWINDOW message, so the window is never closed unless you are actually calling the CloseWindow command.
