C#

private void Parent_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
        {
            DialogResult dr;
            dr = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit?", "Confirm Exit", MessageBoxButtons.OKCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Question);
            if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
            {
                Application.Exit();
            }
            else
                e.Cancel = true;
        }

My problem is that when I clicked OK, the messagebox will again pop up asking if I'm going to exit the application.
I want it so that when I click OK, the application will close automatically.

Please help.

Hi, try this:

C#

private void Parent_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
{
  DialogResult dr;
  dr = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit?", "Confirm Exit", MessageBoxButtons.OKCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Question);
  if (dr == DialogResult.Cancel)
    e.Cancel = true;
}
