Custom menus without the red x and minimise icons at the top right

[-GSS-]

Hi,

I am a new programmer. I've made several basic programs in VB and C but even so I'm new because programming is such a big skill. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone can help me to achieve the following in a VB.NET app I am making (project management app for myself)?

I've seen some applications, which don't have the menu bar, which has the red x and minimise icons, at the top running horizontally the size of the window. How can I get rid of this in my VB.NET windows forms?

Thanks

Work with the MinimizeBox, MaximizeBox and ControlBox properties of form, they are also Designer visible properties.

Hi,

Thanks for that. Please excuse my inexperience in asking such a simple question with such an easy solution in front of my eyes.

However, can I also get rid of that grey horizontal bar at the top of the window? This may require some programming.

Thanks

What "grey horizontal bar at the top of the window"? I can't recall having seen any of those.

Take out the form text.
