What's the best and most efficient way to open and close a form?
Right now i use the form.visible property to open and close a form and then the form.dispose and application.exit methods to close the apps.
What would you recommend using for closing (and releasing a form from memory) and opening a form.
umm how about form.show and form.hide? dunno if it makes a big difference
application.exit will close all the forms, I THINK. I usually use form.close if I dont wanna end my program
The problem with form.close is that when i try to open the form again, it gives me an error.
well I said you should use it when you wanna get rid of it. You can use frm.Hide if you dont want it to be unloadedQuote:

what about releasing the form/application from memory? Does vb.net automatically do that for the most part?
