Override the WndProc method of the form and look for the WM_SYSCOMMAND
message. Here's info on when this message is sent and other details:

You will not check the WParam for the SC_MINIMIZE value. Here's an example
of how to determine when the form is closed using the 'x' button. This one
checks for the SC_CLOSE value - you can modify it to check for SC_MINIMIZE
to determine when the window is minimized.

hope this helps..
