Hi there

I'm trying to display a message box on an exit event and have used the following code, but i get an error: e.cancel is not a member of system.eventargs. Could sum1 pls tell me where i'm going wrong. Thanx.

Private Sub mnuFileExit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mnuFileExit.Click
'before closing make sure the data is pushed back to the database!
Me.Close()
If MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit?", "Exit", _
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question) _
= DialogResult.No Then
e.cancel = True
End If
End Sub

Click cannot be canceled in the same way an update can be cancelled from BeforeUpdate. Click has already happen therefore cannot be cancelled.

Private Sub mnuFileExit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mnuFileExit.Click
'before closing make sure the data is pushed back to the database!
If MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit?", "Exit", _
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question) _
= DialogResult.No Then
Me.Close()
End If
End Sub

would work though.
