Windows already sets DialogResult to Cancel on

And, we have had a difference of opinion on this before: one should not go against
such conventions.

Help me with long-term memory, when was that

Yes.

IIRC it was about changing the behavior of a group of radio buttons;

my point was and is
if it looks like standard controls, it should behave like them too.

So why do we have different results than?

we have different systems

there is a misunderstanding somewhere

private void CancelButton_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    this.DialogResult = DialogResult.Cancel;
    this.Close();
}

protected override void OnClosing(CancelEventArgs e)
{
    if(this.DialogResult == DialogResult.None)
    {
        //'X' was pressed
    }
    else if(this.DialogResult == DialogResult.Cancel)
    {
        //CancelButton was Pressed
    }

    base.OnClosing (e);
}

The last post from the OP seems to hint towards the third possibility, doesnt it ?

Maybe/probably the "Close Box implies Cancel result" only applies to dialogs (forms shown with
ShowDialog) where it matters most, and not to regular forms, shown with Show() ?

If so, you probably did the wrong experiment

and hence your tip does not work, whereas setting it to something else
such as DialogResult=Yes; would work

(but it would then violate the GUI conventions, as I keep telling you).

ContextMenu cm = new ContextMenu();
yourControl.ContextMenu = cm;
