***INSTANTLY RESOLVED***Closing program (THANKS HACK!)

I have this code in the close command button that is supposed to close the program

VB Code:

Private Sub cmdCloseProgram_Click()
Unload me
Set frmItem=Nothing
Set frmOrder=Nothing
End Sub

When I use this button to close the program, it closes well & I cant see the program running in the Task Manager- Processes Tab but when I close the program by pressing [X] button on the upper right corner of the form, it keeps running in the back ground and I can see it thru Task Manager..Any Idea, how I can rectify this?

Move you close code to the Unload event of your main form. When you close the form via the X button, your code is not being processed.

If you run it from the unload event, no matter how the user closes the form, your code will run.

Move the Nothing part to Query_Unload

VB Code:

Private Sub Form_QueryUnload(Cancel As Integer, UnloadMode As Integer)
    Set frmItem = Nothing
    Set frmOrder = Nothing
End Sub

Private Sub cmdCloseProgram_Click()
Unload me
Set frmItem=Nothing
Set frmOrder=Nothing
'== = Thets you need ===
End
'==================
End Sub

Thanks Hack!!!!

GameBit, if he closes his form through the "x" button at the top, your code will not be executed. Also, try to avoid "End" statements as far as possible.

Using 'End' leads down the path to the dark side. So don't ever use it. mkay?

Maybe add the following code to the Exit App event:-

VB Code:

Dim f as Form
For each f in Forms
     Unload f
Next

This will ensure each form is unloaded cleanly.

I thought we declared it was ok to use End after u'd unloading and set the forms to nothing?

We all get upset, but no need to take it out on the poor forms :p

Who are you including in this 'we?' I never remember declaring anything of the sorts.

Those threads we had in the past about this topic... I'll see if I can find them...
