   Peter hasn't been around for a while.  First, please give us the URL of   
   the page where you got his file, so we can be sure we know what revision   
   of the code you're using and can look at that for answers.   
      
   See inline.

   Put the form in design mode, and change its window style (one of the   
   options from when you right click on the form's title bar).

   I'm pretty sure cmView wasn't made to do all this. (just mentioning)

   See above for how to be rid of the x.  Alternately, look for posts which   
   include menuCanClose (I believe) for how to trap all methods of closing   
   a form.   
      
   > Also my form is not displaying the input field – what am I doing wrong?   
      
   I thought cmView included a form you had to use...  Will check when you   
   tell us where to find the rev you're using.

   Note that I would not do anything in these events other than this:   
      
   self.postAction(UserAction+1)   
      
   OR   
      
   someObjectName.postAction(UserAction+1)   
      
   ...where the +1 could be +   
      
   ...otherwise you could be interfering with the event model.
