When the user closes the browser, I want to display a confirm box if the user wants to save before exit.
If he says yes, then I wish to save the information in database and close the browser else I just close the browser.

When you you right click on a textbox the context menu is automatically open.
I have put a textbox inside a relatively complex user defined user control.
The annoing thing is that when I try to open the context menu with a rightclick the context menu is open but it shuts down soon after.
I tried to see if the mousedown or mouseUp of my (preview and not) usercontrol could interfere with this but i did not find anything.
Is there any trick that I can use to see what forces my context menu to close soon after is open?

View 13 RepliesI'm currently in the process of building a text editor type program, and have run into a brick wall. I haven't done VB in years, so I may just need a little reminder on some things. I have coded everything so far as far as opening files, saving them, changing fonts, colors, etc. However, I'm looking to add a Close button to my menu strip that will just close the currently opened file, and not the entire program, while also ask the user if he/she would like to save before closing the file, and then if they select yes, it will show the save dialog, and if not, it will go ahead and close the currently opened item.

View 5 RepliesI want to ask the user a barrage of questions regarding configuration settings within the application. All that is handled, except that I want to ask them on the first run.
