Topic: Disabling the System Menu's Close Button

My application sometimes needs to disable the mainframe's close button. Before using CodeJock, it worked correctly with the following code:

CMenu* pMenu = GetSystemMenu(bOn);

if (!bOn)

{

pMenu->ModifyMenu(SC_CLOSE, MF_BYCOMMAND | MF_GRAYED);

}

Now that I've added the CodeJock skinning and command bar stuff, the code still runs, but the close button remains enabled.

I'm guessing that I need to make a different call into the CXTPMDIFrameWnd class, but I'm not sure what.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike
