VS 2008 Finding The Reason A Form Is Closing (By X Button , By Code Etc)?
Mar 5, 2011
Is there any way I can find the exact reason a form is closing ? To be more specific , I'd like to find when a form is closing :1) because the user pressed the X button on the upper right corner2) due to code (Me.Close , MyForm.Close etc)I know I can use the FormClosing event and use this code :If e.CloseReason = CloseReason.UserClosing Thenhowever it seems that the CloseReason.UserClosing catches both cases (closed by te X button or by code) . So , is there any way I can find exactly the reason a form is closing ?Back in VB6 , the correspondent UnloadMode variable of the Form_Unload event could be "vbFormCode" which indicated specifically that the form was closed by code

I have a problem where a form is closing when it shouldn't be. I just don't see why this is happening so I hope someone can see the obvious error that I'm missing.The user is on a form called frmPersonalAddress. If he clicks on a button labled "Add Children", he will open a new form, using the .showdialogue method called frmChildren.FrmChildren contains several text fields that may be filled and a single CLOSE button. When closing, the program will examine the fields. If it finds an error, a Messagebox will display with the error and the form should remain open. If there are no errors, the form will close

There may be times when it would be useful for your code to be able to find and close modal dialogs displayed by an application. Perhaps you do not want to have to wait indefinitely for your user's input, or are using the COM Web browser control to automatically navigate Web page and would like to interactively close alert messages that pop up.Digging into our Interop toolbox, we find that this is a relatively simple process using a few core Win32API calls. Starting with the handle of the main window associated with the dialog (this is the form from which the messagebox was shown, whether from your code or from a Web page hosted in a Web browser control on the form), the GetWindow function can be used to retrieve a handle to a dialog windows (called a popup by the Windows API) being displayed (if any). The same function can then be used to enumerate the child windows of the dialog to find a button on the dialog to click in order to close it, and the SendMessage API function can be used to simulate that click, effectlvely closing the dialog window.
NOTE: At the top of whatever code file you put this code, be sure to include the following line (thanks poiygon for pointing this out):Code:Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices this allows for the shortcuts to the DllImport attributes.[code]This sample can be easily modified to close a dialog in another application (by using the MainWindowHandle of that application in the LookForAndCloseIEPopup function, instead of "Me.Handle") or to close any other type of modal dialog message being displayed to your user.

Dim 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?

Is there a *simple* syntax that will close a form when a button is pressed and leave the application completely if there is only one form? In vb6 it is, e.g.
Private Sub Command2_Click()
Unload(me)
End Sub
I have got as far as knowing its Button2_Click...

Form1 is a mdi container. It has a bunch of forms that can load inside of it as mdi children. If I close each open form inside the form1, and then click the red X at the top right, application exits fine.If I click the red X without closing the forms inside I get: An unhandled exception of type 'System.CannotUnloadAppDomainException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Error while unloading appdomain. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131015) However I can break from it. How do I get the application to not show that error? What must I do to fix those inside forms or close when the red x is clicked?

I have a VB.NET 2010 Forms Application which includes a form with a textbox, and two buttons which I call from the main form using .ShowDialog
I've messed with something such that I can no longer prevent the dialog from closing when the user clicks the Ok button but has entered invalid information.
Here is the handler for the OK button's click event:
Private Sub cmdOK_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdOK.Click

I am working on a program and for some reason when I run it as an executable outside of debug mode, if I run the main subroutine of the program, the process remains in memory after being closed. Even though the form is closed/gone, it will be in the process list and I have to ctl-alt-del to remove it. If I exit right after opening the form without doing anything, it closes like normal. I am closing and disposing everything I can think of, and I've never had this problem before. This is how I am exiting, but the problem also occurs if the user "X's" out.
Me.Close()
Application.Exit()
I have a couple web file requests in my program, which is the only thing out of the ordinary (code-wise) for me, don't know if those are the root of the problem. I can't imagine this is the first time this has happened to anyone, but I couldn't find anything helpful with my search terms. Any ideas/common solutions? I can post sections of my code if it will help, but the whole thing is pretty long and I couldn't narrow down any potential problem areas.

Using VB 2008: I have two command buttons on a form called "cmdOK" and "cmdCancel" with respective captions of "&OK" and "&Cancel". The cmdOK command button is not linked to the form's AcceptButton property, while the cmdCancel button is linked to the CancelButton property.
The code below illustrates the contents Click event of the cmdOK command button which correctly handles cmdOK.Click
The form is opened with a ShowDialog() method.
Whenver the cmdOK button is clicked, the form closes, even if txtExpression = "" and the Exit Sub is consequently triggered.
Try
If Me.txtExpression.Text = "" Then

1. I am closing the form which started the thread inside the thread. There are no errors , but Is it safe ?
2. The thread starts at click of a button . If same button is clicked again , the thread is aborted. Should the thread be made Background or foreground ? it is working either way.
my code :
Private Sub BtnOk_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnOk.Click
m_Thread = New System.Threading.Thread(AddressOf MyFunction)
m_Thread.IsBackground = True

Is there a way to prevent the form closing event from executing if validation fails on a control? If validation on a control fails this stops the form from closing, but the closing event still executes. Scenario is user has focus in a text box, tries to close the form. Validation fails, but closing event is fired. I'm not sure how I can abort that event.

I have a modal form that does double duty.When a user wants to add a new object to a database, I open the form blank and they fill it out. When the form closes, all of the data is passed back to my main form and is used to create the new object in the database.When a user wants to edit an existing object, I open the form and pre-populate all of the fields with the object's data.I'm running checks on the form as they edit the fields, only enabling the "OK" button (which will update the database) if the form has actually been changed. If they make a change and then undo it, the "OK" button is reset to Enabled = False.At the bottom of the form are a ComboBox, two buttons and a ListBox. The intent is to allow the user to select an item from the ComboBox and "Add" ("Add" button) to the ListBox, or select an item in the ListBox and "Remove" ("Remove" button) it FROM the ListBox.
This function works fine when the form is loaded blank.When the form is loaded with data, however, (and in the testing I've done, the ListBox has no items in it to start, which is valid), adding an item from the ComboBox to the ListBox causes the Modal form to close with a DialogResult of Cancel.I've tried to trace the source of this issue, but stepping through each line in debug mode gives me no clue as to why this is happening.I COULD remove all of the checks and update the form each time the user presses "OK" (in the case of no changes, the database data would be overwritten with the same data), but that seems kludgy and less elegant. Plus, I'd like this logic to work.

Is it possible in VB .NET to find out if a form is loaded? Also, is it possible to find out if a form is shown at the moment? I think for the second issue it's enough to get the value of the property of the form:
MyForm.Visible
However, I don't know how I could find out if a form is loaded or not.

I want it so when the "x" button is clicked a message box will appear saying "Are you sure you want to exit?" then if "yes" it closes and if "NO" it stays open. so my code is:
Dim a As Integer
a = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit?", _
"Vice Versa 1.0", _
CODE:...................
This should work, no? When i debug my project clicking "no" still exits my program. Is this just because it's in debug mode or am i missing something here?
Also no warnings or errors. Is there a way i can make my game pause when the message box shows? I only have it working to if the users presses "p" on keyboard. But also want game paused when message box shows, without pressing "p"
