Closing form

Per Jespersen

I would like to execute some stuff when I close my form. Isn't there a function called:

  private void Form1_Closing(object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e)
        {

        }

But it doesn't work for me.

You can override both or just the last one.

   protected override void OnClosing(CancelEventArgs e)
   {
   base.OnClosing(e);
   }

   protected override void OnClosed(EventArgs e)
   {
   base.OnClosed(e);
   }

Ok. I've tried that. But the method "FileMonitorApp_FormClosing()" isn't executed, when I close that window. I don't know why.

form _closing take only 2 arguments the syntax is like this

private void FileMonitorApp_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("in the closing");
        }

        private void FileMonitorApp_FormClosed(object sender, FormClosedEventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("in the closed");
        }

suppose you have to undo the closing use the
e.Cancel = true; in the closing event then the form is available
