Right, managed to sort this out:
this.getFrame().setResizable(false);
this.getFrame().setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);
this.getFrame().addWindowListener(new Closer());


In just after the initComponents(); line and added my Closer() routine  
elsewhere. One problem remains now though, when you close the window via  
the close button, this works - except if you're on a Mac and exit via the  
Quit menu (system menu, not one in the frame) it bypasses the routine.
