window.

The workspace is the area between the sides of the window
(not including the thickness of the frame, toolbar, or scroll bar,
if any) and the top and bottom of the window (not including the
thickness of the border or the title bar, menu bar, toolbar, or
scroll bar, if any).

CloseQuery

When you remove a window from display
(close it). When you close a window, PowerBuilder triggers the CloseQuery
event and then inspects the value of Message.ReturnValue. If the
Message.ReturnValue is 1, the window cannot be closed.

Closing any window causes PowerBuilder to close all child

causes PowerBuilder to close all sheet windows within it. Any window
thus closed can set Message.ReturnValue to cancel the close operation.
