Use a Sub Main and then never load the forms if you don't have to.

what do you mean by use Sub Main?
how do i stop the main form from loading?

even if i exit the initialize sub Form_Load will still be called and the form will still load.

my main forms Form_Initialize event reads some text files and loads information from them, if the files cannot be found i want to abort and exit, however unload me does not work until the form is completely loaded...

Sub Main refers to Project - StartUp object (Project-->Project Properties Menu). If you change StartUp object to Sub Main you need to add this code to one of your modules:

Sub Main()
    'put what you want program to do
    'before anything is being loaded
End Sub

Example:
This code will run program only if date is 01/01/2000. Put this code in a Module

Sub Main()
    If Date=#01/01/00# Then
        Form1.Show
        'Form1 is being loaded
    Else
        MsgBox "Today is not 01/01/2000"
        'at this point program stops
    End If
End Sub

Hope this will help
