exit button newbie

[GOOGE]

hi

is it possible to unload all form when the user clicks the X at the top right to exit the form.

the problem i have with my program is that i have a form running in the background that is not visable,if the us clicks the X to exit then the form in the background is still running. can i make it so when the exit out of say form1 then for2 will unload.

i have tried sub form1 unload but it doesnt seem to work


cheers

Private Sub Form1_Unload()
Dim x
For Each x In Forms
Unload x
Next
End Sub

hi
you just put End statement in the form unload event. it may solve your problem

Use the QueryUnload() event Rob Marriott

 

[visualJay]

In the Unload() event

unload form.name(background form)
unload me
end

this will close the both forms and end all processes.

Microsoft warns against using the end event because it is supposedly very sloppy, Ie it does not always clear the memory like unload me. For an example End is ramming your car into a wall @ 60 m/h to stop it, Unload is rolling to a gentle stop.
