Thanks John.

We have already handled the delegate method. But this won't solve the UI issue . We want to disable the red "close" button itself.

Veena,

That's actually pretty easy to do. You just disable the "Close" button in the Window Attributes of NIB. While I don't think it's considered "proper" to send images to the list here's a link to a screenshot from NIB 3 showing this:

That said.. I don't know that this is a really good design idea. Certainly in other GUI environments it's more 'proper' to tell the user why the close of the application is being stopped rather than to simply block it.

Just my US$0.02 (not worth as much as it used to be I know, but still).
