If you know the window handle:
Code:HMENU hSysMenu = GetSystemMenu(hMyWindow, FALSE); EnableMenuItem(hSysMenu, SC_CLOSE, MF_BYCOMMAND | MF_GRAYED);

sweet! thanks very much, that's exactly what i was after
I would advise against doing that though. Who likes running programs that they don't have control of?

If you have a specific close button or an OK button in a dialog, for example, this might be used. You can use it, you just need to be careful where you use it.

You can still do ALT-F4 or force it closed via task manager. I cant think of any legitimate reason to grey it out, probably some malware.
Until you can build a working general purpose reprogrammable computer out of basic components from radio shack, you are not fit to call yourself a programmer in my presence. This is cwhizard, signing off.
I've had legitimate reasons to disable the close button myself.
Usually I do it when I don't want someone to "close" the dialog when it makes no sense. For example, when you have to click a specific set of buttons. Which one of these does close represent? May be confusing to the user, too, in which case I would disable it.
A typical yes/no set of buttons, perhaps.

Windows automaticly disables the close button on Yes/No message boxs.

Which is a good example of when you can and should disable the close button.
I was referring more to custom dialogs which contains choices.
