I've got a single form application.
In the Sub New() of that form I'm creating two database classes.
In those classes if I get database errors (such as connection issues) I'm messagebox'ing the error message and setting an ERRFLAG property.
Back in the Sub New() I'm checking that ERRFLAG and I thought I could ME.CLOSE() - but that's not working.
What all is best practice for this type of operation?
This is what I had up to now
Sub New()
Me.CMCStarting = True
' This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.

I have a programme that accepts data from a serial port. If I close the port and then the form no problem. However if I try to close the form with out closing the port it appears to hang. I have tried closing the port in the forms close event but this did not solve the problem.The data recieved event is as below and UseData is the private sub which actually handles the data. Usedata contains the code line Dim InputText As String = SerialPort1.ReadLine
Private Sub SerialPort1_DataReceived(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.IO.Ports.SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) Handles SerialPort1.DataReceived
Me.Invoke(New myDelegate(AddressOf UseData), New Object() {})
End SubI am aware that this event runs on another thread and I have seen but cannot now find information about closing multiple active threads.or do I have to "uninvoke" the delegate
I'm trying to close one form and open another by clicking on a picturebox.

But it shows an error under me.close. I know this is obvious, but I'm sleepy and have been trying to figure it out for a while
I'm making an equation program and I want to have a main menu where the user can select an equation and then when one of the buttons is clicked, it closes the "selection" form and opens the appropriate form. For now I just have it set to show the proper form (for example, Form3.Show) but when I try to do something like Me.Close() after it, everything closes instead of keeping Form3 open.

invoiceform.show()
me.close()
This is the only way I can think to do it, but it closes the application due to me.close(). How can I do this? Invoiceform is already running!

View 2 RepliesI am having a difficulty in this login form that I have made. The same as the premade template login in VB 2008 which I am using right now.Here's what happens when I run the program Log in form open > Log in successful > Main window appears *The login form still does not disappear.
I tried hiding it via me.hide() Log in form open > log in successful > Main window appears > log in form disappear.*Now the problem is that I cant close the whole application because the login form is still there only hidden. Again I tried putting in the "EXIT" button the code me.close() login.close()Log in form open > log in successful > Main window appears > log in form disappears > Exit application *Now everything seems to be ok now and then I found another problem.Instead of clicking the exit button I tried clicking the X button on the main window. There I found out that it only closes the main window. Therefore not closing the whole application because the login form is still hidden.
I have a moving label in FrmAbout and when the form initially opens for the first time the label moves from right to left exactly how it should, but when that window is closed and then re-opened the label continues moving from the position it was in when the window was closed. How can I reset the labels position to the starting position when the form as been opened or closed?Here is the code that I currently have inside the Tick Event. I have tried resetting the timer, thinking that maybe that would work, but it has not.
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
Static i As Integer = 461
' i = 224
MovingNameLabel.SetBounds(i, 1, 223, 45)

I have a main form that has a button with which a smaller form is shown. Think of the smaller form as the Find/Replace dialog in many applications, such as Notepad. It's important that the form is (what I believe is called) modal. What I mean is that it always stays on top of the main form. I ensure that by calling the Show method with "Me" as the owner argument. Whenever the small form loses focus it will not disappear into the background but stay visible (albeit out of focus). If you don't understand open up Notepad and have a look at the behavior of the Find/Replace dialog.
Here's my problem: instead of actually closing the form when the X is pressed, I want it to simply Hide itself, so its position and the state of any controls (checkboxes etc) is preserved automatically.To achieve this I simply cancel the FormClosing event and Hide it:
vb.net
Private Sub Form2_FormClosing(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.FormClosing
[code]....
To show the form, I use the following (note the (Me) to make the main form the owner of the form; this ensures that it remains visible even when it is out of focus):
vb.net
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Form2.Show(Me)
End Sub
Now. When I run my project, and open the Form2 (small form), then hide it again (by 'closing' it), I can no longer close the main form (Form1)! It seems the main form cannot close when the small form still exists (albeit invisible)...?? When I don't use the Me argument in the Show method, I don't get the behavior I want. I know I can set the TopMost property to True but that will also cause it to become visible on top of all the other forms, even windows not part of my application.
I have made a little programme where the user can put in a name to search for a contact.The matches then fill a Datagrid and the user can then choose the one they want and the programm then opens the contact form (from outlook client)The Contact form opens ok, and it brings up the correct contact. If the user then selects the option to "Email" from that from I then get the error message"A Dialog is open" etc...
My code is as follows
Sub GetContact()
Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application
Dim objNS As Outlook.NameSpace
[code]....
It seems to be due to Outlook being open or opening?
How do I Close a Form and then open a new one straight away? Im trying to make a Login for a Program, but I want the Login Box to open first, then disappear when the credentials are correct and a new Form to load.
View 3 RepliesI've created a very simple form with one button on. I need it so when the form runs, it opens in the bottom right hand corner of the screen regardless of the resolution. It also needs to be always on top of all other applications.
When the buttons pressed, i need it to close all iexplore instances and reopen a fresh instance.
I've tried to search for the answer but to no avail.
I can hide my startup form (or make it appear hidden) on startup. I can start my app on windows startup--through registry values--if the user checks a checkbox.
But if the app starts up on windows startup, I want the form to be hidden, so the program can just keep working without bothering anyone. If it starts up because the user started it, I want the form to be showing, because the user probably wants to change some settings or something.
well i successfully docked a perpixel alpha form with the main form(form1). but the perpixel alpha form always appears at the top left corner of the screen and when i move the main form the form(perpixel alpha form) inside it dosen't move it stays at the top left corner. ALWAYS. to dock the perpixel alpha form i used
Me.toplevel = false
Me.parent = form1
