Jul 27, 2010I am making a program that edits my website with the input that I put in. But, it is requiring multiple forms (obviousily), but I don't know how to make it close the one I am in while opening the other. For example: I have a form that opens first that requires a Username and Password, so nobody can obviousily use it without knowing them. When I submit the correct username and password and go on with the editing, I need the login form to close. I do not know the coding for this part. Is it:

VS 2008 Closing All Forms When Program Closes Vs. Closing All But Main Form
Jun 4, 2010Dim frm As Form
For Each frm In Forms
Set frm = Nothing
Next frm
The above code is what I used in VB6 to close all forms associated with my programs before my program closed. I have been searching for information on how to make sure all forms are closed when closing a VB2008 program.
I have seen info on using the Project Property Shutdown mode When startup form closes and I currently have this set.
Is this all that is really necessary? Will the garbage disposal close everything else to free up RAM?
Also, if I have several forms open and want to close all from the main form without closing each one individually, what is the best approach? Is there a collection like in VB6, go through the collection, compare it to the name of the main form and close it if it is not the main form?

Stock/Inventory Calculations With Opening/closing Balance?
Sep 16, 2009I got stuck up with one issue of inventory/stock calculations and put my problem in four threads and grasped some ideas and thoughts for that. But could not find SQL query for this issue in those threads. i am able to construct SQL query for stock/inventory calculations. Since I could not find any SQL query as an example on this issue inspite of spending a lot of time and search, deifinitely there might be so many examples but i was unable to reach them, so after constructing this query i wanted to share my humble effort with all. It may be a second thought for beginners like me having the same problem.The second purpose of placing this query here is to welcome improvement or alternate of this query.

Using ONE Module With All Data Connection And Recordset Opening And Closing Options
Mar 19, 2012Finally starting some coding in VB.Net, I notice over the years, that we can say (in VB6)
Code: Dim MyForm_Stock as NEW frmStock
in the same session, being able to open, say 3 Stock Forms at the same time and maintain details independently of each of the other forms. Also am I able to maintain separate Database connections and the same table being opened and updated independently of each other by each separate form. What is actually taking place in terms of memory being used by each process? My ultimate goal is to be able to have ONE Module with all the possible data Connection and Recordset Opening and closing options, which I have failed miserably to do in my VB6 experience. Data access is an obvious module based set of subroutines. Others could be Date routines eg, Week Number of the year, Days Diff, Days to, etc. [Code]

VS 2010 Child Form Tell Parent Form It Is Closing And Send ID?
Apr 2, 2012I have a parent form that has a list of items and each item has a unique ID. The user can open one or many of the items in a child form (it is set up in a tabbed MDI), but it can only open one instance of each item at a time.
In the parent form, I was going to make a collection (or something like that, maybe there is a better way) to keep track of which items are open in the child forms. I need to know when each child is closed so that it can be removed from the collection and reopened at a later time. I was thinking that when the child form closes, it somehow does something (like raise an event) that tells the parent form to remove the unique ID from the list of current open child forms.
My questions are, is this a good way to do this and I am pretty sure I would use the form closed event in the child form to update that parent form, but as well, I didn't know if this is the best way of handling it.
If raising the event is a good way, are some examples on how to do it out there? I found some for controls, but not while the form is closing/closed.
Closing A Form But Keeping The Information In The Form?
Apr 28, 2010I am working on a project that has the user building scrapbook pages through several different forms. When the user selects something a presses a button I have the information about the selection load to a list box which is on a CheckoutForm. One of the options I have is for the user to save what they have made (this includes the information in the list boxes) and return to a previous form to build another page. I have been trying to use the Me.Close() but it does not save the information and using Me.Hide() displays the wrong elements on the forms.

Fire A Method On A Different Form When Closing A Form?
Jun 22, 2010I have a unique challenge that I just cannot seem to get by...I have a form with a series of listboxes that allows the user to rename items in the listbox (I probably should be using a listview control instead). When the user right-clicks and selects rename from the context menu I show a simple form with two labels & text boxes showing the selected list box item in one textbox...the other is blank waiting for the user to enter a new name. What I'd like to do is when the user closes the rename form, the information is passed back to the calling form and a listbox refresh method is fired to show the changed name. Couple question:
First, is there an easier method to implement the renaming concept in a listbox (probably should be using a list view) i.e., have I overcomplicated things?
