Forms :: When Me.close() Doesn't Close Form

Mar 2, 2009

I have a situation where me.close() doesn't close the form. I have a form with a button with the code seen below. What happens when the button is clicked is the new form shows, but the original form(calling form) is still there. When I go into debug mode, I can see the me.close() execute, but nothing happens (calling form stays open). When I close the second form both forms close. If I comment out the call for the second form to open the first form closes without problem.

Private Sub cmdNext_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdNext.Click
Dim f As New frmOrder3

Me.Close() Doesn't Work - The Form Doesn't Close?

Apr 16, 2009

The form is an About Us form so has nothing on it only a text box and a OK button.

[Code]...

Why won't the button close the form? I'm puzzled, I tried another button just in case with the same result. UPDATE: I set a break point on Me.Close() and it isn't reaching it when I click the button, I created a new button and the same thing happened.

Close() Puts Forms Into Crazy Open/Close Loop?

Mar 4, 2011

In a program I'm working on, I want a "Loading..." dialog to close when it can't log in to a site using the username and password provided by the user. Basically, I have the code set up right because the function it is supposed to carry out when that occurs does work, but for some reason it ends up in some really weird stuff happening. In the Loading form, I have it set to do "Form1.Show()" and then "Me.Close()", assuming it would simply show the login form and then close the Loading form. However, when this happens, the Loading form closes, and then for only an instant Form1 shows, and then the Loading form shows and Form1 closes. This happens forever until I stop the debugging, and I can't seem to figure out why. Am I using the wrong method? What exactly does Me.Close() do anyways? All I want to do is close the form and open another

RTF Close - Add A Close Button To Menu Strip That Will Just Close The Currently Opened File

Jan 16, 2009

I'm currently in the process of building a text editor type program, and have run into a brick wall. I haven't done VB in years, so I may just need a little reminder on some things. I have coded everything so far as far as opening files, saving them, changing fonts, colors, etc. However, I'm looking to add a Close button to my menu strip that will just close the currently opened file, and not the entire program, while also ask the user if he/she would like to save before closing the file, and then if they select yes, it will show the save dialog, and if not, it will go ahead and close the currently opened item.

VS 2008 : Modal Form Hide Instead Of Close - Main Form Does Not Close

Mar 20, 2009

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.

Interface And Graphics :: Hide / Show - Doesn't Dispose When Close Form

Oct 23, 2008

Is there a way to have a form within a program that doesn't dispose when you close it? I have a form in my project and a menu item to show it. When I declare the form globally and show in menuItem.click, then the click event breaks because the form no longer exists. When I declare the form within menuItem.click, then this creates a new form every time I click and that's not what I want.

How Does A Windows.forms.form Close Itself

May 30, 2012

I created a new windows form application using VB 2010. I added no controls to the form. This is right "out of the box" app created by the VB windows form app wizard. I next added a FormClosed event handler. The handler gets called whenever I click the "x" on the form.Later I needed to close the form programatically in response to an event from an automation client. So I did something apparently farily dumb. I called "Me.Close()" Nothing happens. The form stays up on the screen. My FormClosed event handler is NOT called.The MSDN entry for "Close" doesn't give me a clue as to why this call doesn't work. Indeed, it seems to imply it should work.So I added a couple of lines of code after calling "Close()" since when I stepped across that line of code it appears that no other code would execute. Sure enough, as soon as I step over the call to Close(), I cannot step through any other lines of code.

Then I found another piece of form code while searching around and I found the code had what appeared to be an odd keyword just dangling in the code. The keyword, colored by the IDE as a VB keyword?So I typed "End" into my method and intellisense shows me "End Statement. Stops execution immediately". And it does. But is my FormClosed event handler called. No.I added "Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form" to see if that had any effect. No change.So how does a form close itself programatically?

Forms :: Close And Reopen Child Form Within Parent?

When my application first loads the parent opens and I select my child form from toolstrip:

'In parent open the form when option is clicked

Nothing happens I don't even get an error message. I've played around with the code numerous times and the only thing that worked was to have it open outside of the parent which I do not want to happen.

Forms :: Skip Validation Of Active Control When Form's Close Button Is Clicked

Aug 12, 2009

Is there any way to skip a the validating event of the active control when the close button of the form is clicked. It is very annoying when user wants to close the form, but due to the validate event of the active control, it asks for the valid input. The user is forced to give valid input to close the form. I have searched a lot for this on net but no any proper solution could be found.

Splash Screen Doesn't Close?

Apr 23, 2012

My Splash screen is acting funny. I may have inadvertently changes some detail somewhere, but I'm not sure where. I have a main form and a splash screen set in the "My Project" screen. When I test the program the splash screen shows up, as does the main form - simultaneously. The main form functions properly, but when I close it the splash screen doesn't close and the application runs forever.

I've tried removing and replacing splash screens to no effect. I've tried using the minimumsplashscreendisplaytime method, but nothing changes. Is there some page of information somewhere, independent of any individual splash screen, that manages all of this?
