closing window prompt?

[Doubledunk]

Hello community, I would first of all like to thank you for being of great help in my times of need. However, I must call upon your expertise once more.

I would like to know if there is a way to force some sort of prompt when the user wants to close a window. I want to design it in such a way that when the user fills out the fields and tries to close the actual window it will prompt him that he needs to commit the changes first.

In other words. Can I program a script action to the "x" in the top right of the window?

Thank you much

Yes you can. With 9 Advanced you have the ability to create custom menus. You can override the default behavior for the Close command under the File menu to run a script.

Basically, clicking the red X (on the top left, neh?) is the same as apple-W or choosing the Close option on the drop down.

Thank you very much, I guess I need to purchase filemaker advance.

Your help is greatly appreciated.
