Simple Forms question (atleast, it should be simple)

I create a new instance of FrmLogin

Code:

---

        Dim LoginForm As FrmLogin
        LoginForm = New FrmLogin()
        LoginForm.Show()

---

If I unload (close/set to nothing) the current form I'm on, then frmLogin is lost. Something I don't want to happen.

How do you guys load a form, while closing the one you were on?

Thanks!

The First form loaded carries the 'Application Thread' and can't be closed until the end of the application. You could hide it or you can show the other forms modally from sub main before calling the 'Main Form'.

****... that's so sloppy.

Basically, I'll have to hide it and close it later on. :-/

exactly, that is what you have to do. I don't like it either.

What are you calling as your 'Main' form, that needs to close after a little while? I would start from a Sub Main and then show any login or temporary forms modally before using Application.Run(New frmMain).
