Another example with a message asking if the user is sure they want to close.
Protected Overrides Sub OnClosing(ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs)
        Dim Response As DialogResult
        Response = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to close?", "Close?", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo)
        If Response <> Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Yes Then
            e.Cancel = True
        End If
 
        MyBase.OnClosing(e)
    End Sub
