Is there any way to determine whether a form was closed by clicking the "X" button or by calling Me.close? They both fire the FormClosing event, but I need to determine how the form is being closed so I can do different things.
View 7 RepliesI have multiple forms, I need to close the current form -without clicking any button- and directly open another form in this project.. i am using show and close methods but either the 2 forms are appearing together or the current form is not appearing at all.

View 5 RepliesI believe there wont be any diff if user clicks the button on the form and the click event is fired OR if we call the button click event / function in the code. Because in one my project, this does make diff. If I click the button on the form, the App works great but same button if I click it thru the form code, the whole process crashes. This happens in Vista / VB.net.
View 12 RepliesI have multiple forms in my VB.NET application. How do I make it so that any form I close will terminate the application?
View 3 RepliesI have been developing my application for a while and need some advice on the closing. I want a code to be run when the close button is clicked but ONLY when it is clicked.
I have dried the form.disposed but that fires whenever the form is closed from the code. I just want it to do it when the close button is clicked.If you don't understand it I will give an example. I have a registation form that is the first thing a user who has not used the app before can see. When they click the close button I want the application to exit through Application.Exit(), however when they have registered the form is closed from the code through
formlogin.show()Me.close()However the Me.closE() triggers the form.disposed event and thus the application exits completely which I don't want. I know I can use the form.hide() but that keeps it running which makes the app more resource intensive.
I have a form in Visual Basic 2010 in Design view, and at the top of the form there is a close button along with the minimize and Maximize Buttons. is what I require is when that close button is pressed/clicked I want to close the application
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to close one form and open another by clicking on a picturebox.
I'm using this code:
Me.Close()
Form1.Show
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 have set up a notify icon for my form. I want to make it so that when the user clicks the close button that it doesn't close the form it just takes it to shows the notify icon. They can exit the program from the notify icon. Can someone tell me how to keep it running?
View 2 Replies[Edit] See this post as to why I'm declaring form elements globally. I chose to rewire my code to get rid of the global definitions. [End Edit] I'm creating a from dynamically at runtime. the form, all buttons, and the combobox are all declared globally to the parent form. dim myForm as new form

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?
I have done some reading and it seems that this error comes from recursive calls but I have not done anything in my form_closing handler except for call me.close, that's it.
So I don't understand how this exception has entered my project. All of my data and functionality is still working as I expect. It just seems to throw this exception when I try and exit my project.
what I could check to prevent something like this from happening?

how can i make my Form not to close but to Hide when user click on the "X" button on the form?
As i have a NotifyIcon that contain an Exit menu which actually does the Form Closing (i don't want the Form's "X" to close the form but to hide it).
<tr>
<td align="right"></td>
<td align="left">
<input name="userId" value="8194364" type="hidden">
<input name="action" value="saveChanges" type="hidden">
<input class="submitImage" src="/theme/default/buttonSaveChanges.gif" type="image" align="top"><input class="submitButton" value="Save Changes" type="submit"></td>
</tr>

Again the code clicks the button, but doesn't save the information so I figured it has something to do with the hidden value. I've never seen this problem before so I don't know where to go from here.
I created another form that had a pic and two simple buttons, one button plays music the other will stop the music if played and take you back to the previous form. My problem lies in when the users uses the windows "x" button to flose the form, the music does not stop. I have searched and failed and light that could be shed would be awesome.Apparently I saved the wrong file and am not on my VB box so this code is incorrect. I basically added the music to the resources, dim'd it and activated it with a button. The other button not listed in this code was set to "portal.stop()" and "Me.Close()"

Is there a way to determine whether processes have been opened or closed during a given time frame? I'm working on code that will take an initial copy of your processes list, and then based on a timer, continue to take copies, which will compared to the initial processes list to determine which processes have been opened or closed until the timer ends. I'm capturing the processes list's in an Array list.
Dim processesList As String //Initial processes list
Dim processActivity As String //Opened or Closed processes
Dim processesAtStart As New ArrayList // Initial processes as ArrayList (To Compare)
Dim processesCheck As New ArrayList // Latest processes as ArrayList (To Compare)

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.

I have a form with multiple datagridviews. On save the entire dataset will be serialized to a strongly typed property bound to a sql varbinary(max) Works fine. Of course the current "dirty" cell will not be saved as mentioned here :
[URL]
My problem is the user could be coming from any one of 20 datagridviews when they click SAVE. Is there any way, short of checking for a dirty cell in each datagridview to commit any dirty cell before the save ( clicking another textbox control before the save does the trick but calling the focus() of that textbox prior to the save does not ) I was thinking perhaps catching the event of leaving the grid but it seems the base problem is clicking a button (for reasons I think I understand) does not fire lostfocus events for the current control and it doesn't seem the click handler args knows what the last current selected control is.
