    FullScreen mode

    Hi all,

    I use the following code to get to FullScreen mode:

    With Me
    .WindowState=FormWindowState.Maximised
    .Text=""
    .ControlBox=False
    End With

    This achieves the desired effect BUT....

    when I try to close the form with code, it keeps re-opening. Even if I set the WindowState to Normal and the ControlBox to True it does not help.

    If I omit .ControlBox=False then the form will close from code. It seems as if once the ControlBox has been set to false, the effect it has on the Close event is permanent. I have tried this out in a separate Project and this effect is absent, so I suppose it is something in my application, but I cannot see why.

    Anyone ever had this happen?

    Regards,
