On PocketPC, when you tap the (X) to close the application, it stays open

  • 0

On PocketPC, when you tap the (X) to “close” the application, it stays open in the background. The only way to close it (without third-party programs) is to go to the settings->memory and close the program. Or you can run other programs so when the PPC gets to no memory it will close the earlier programs.

I am developing an application for PPC and I was wondering if there is an elegant way to actually CLOSE the application when user taps the (X) button in the top-right corner. Is there an event raised for this?

(Using .NET CF 3.5)

    On a PocketPC Form, the X is a minimize button. The close button, on the other hand is an ‘OK’ button.
    To get the OK button to display, you can set the MinimizeBox property to ‘False’.
