    Disable the big X red button of Excel

    Hi, I need help again, please. Is there a way to disable the X red button on the right top side of excel itself. I created a workbook with menu buttons and there is a button for exit already. I would like to disable the excel x red button and i want to force the people to use that created button. It is the red X button, not on the workbook, but totally on the top right side, next to the minimize and maximize button. Is it possible?

    Thank you in advance

    I believe it is possible (and I'm pretty sure I've done it in the past), however you really want to be careful when you start changing application-level settings like that. You have to code them in such a way that impacts ONLY the active workbook - essentially requiring code within the ThisWorkbook Activate and Deactivate events to turn on/off the setting.
