Detect when my application is killed

Hi!

I'm trying to detect when my application is killed (End task or process in the Windows Task Manager). If I could detect it, I could end the app normally instead of ""crashing"". Does someone know if it is possible? I've searched pretty much to find something...but found nothing!

Thanks,

Use the QueryUnload event in your main form. It will tell you the UnloadMode. From the help:


vbFormControlMenu 0 The user chose the Close command from the Control menu on the form.
vbFormCode 1 The Unload statement is invoked from code.
vbAppWindows 2 The current Microsoft Windows operating environment session is ending.
vbAppTaskManager 3 The Microsoft Windows Task Manager is closing the application.
vbFormMDIForm 4 An MDI child form is closing because the MDI form is closing.
vbFormOwner 5 A form is closing because its owner is closing.

Try:


If App.PrevInstance = True Then 'application is running
'do something
Else 'application is not running
'do other
End If
