App is still in the background when its suppose 2 end

What reasons could there be if the app is still in the list when u ctrl+alt+del, when its suppose 2 unload, I've used the end command ?

Thanks

Don't use end.It is a bad programming habit.Use

Code:

---

Unload Form

---

Instead.End just forces the app to close without freeing up memory.

In some cases you can use End:

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
Dim frm As Form
For Each frm In Forms
Unload frm
Set frm = Nothing
Next
End
End Sub

---

Or, another use is:

Code:

---

'Module Code
Sub Main()
...
Proc1
...
End Sub

Sub Proc1()
...
Proc2
...
End Sub
.
.
.

Sub Procn()
...
End
...
...
End Sub

---

another use for End, for you can't unload a module and just Exit Sub is too complicated.

This is the best way to go.

Set Form = Nothing - Clears up any resources a form is using.
Unload Me - Unloads a form or control from memory.
End - Terminates execution. Never required by itself but may be placed anywhere in a procedure to close files opened with the Open statement and to clear variables.


Notice: See the End statement, never use it by itself (in Bold).
