What's your code for cancelling look like?

Did you try to see whether it works?

Thanks Douglas. is that as simple as
"If Me.Dirty = True Then Magbee"
Will this intercept the Access message?
Thanks
Tony

Check whether the form's Dirty property is set to True. If it isn't,
they
haven't made any changes.

I have a number of forms with a cancel button. If the user clicks on
the
cancel button they get a standard Access message box. I want the use to
see
a box that says "You haven't changed anything? There is nothing to
cancel.
Did you mean to Close the form? If so click Yes"
And the message box would have yes/ no buttons. The creation of the
message
box is OK I can do that but how do intercept the Access message box and
what
code do I need to use to check whether anything has changed?
Thanks
Tony
