Unloading forms

I was wondering if there is a quick and easy way to unload all of my MDI Child forms.

You could make the forms an array then:
For x = 1 to 5
Unload MChild(x)
Next x
or make a sub
Public Sub UnloadM()
Unload Mchild
Unload Mchild2
Unload Mchild3
End Sub

No, I don't want to make a function for it, because I only need it in one place. Thanks anyway. But one other question:

How can I check to see if a form is loaded? Because if I try to unload a form that is not loaded, then it will give me an error.

I don't know if it helps, but if you know the name of this form then you could use this:

Code:

---

Public Function FormLoadedByName(FormName As String) As Boolean
    Dim i As Integer, fnamelc As String
    fnamelc = LCase$(FormName)
    FormLoadedByName = False
    For i = 0 To Forms.Count - 1
        If LCase$(Forms(i).Name) = fnamelc Then
            FormLoadedByName = True
            Exit Function
        End If
    Next
End Function

---

Well it's not perfect but maybe you will be able to use it somehow.

You will hear a lot about it.

Actually, there is:

Code:

---

For Each Form In Forms
    If Form.Name <> MDIForm.Name Then Unload Form
Next

---

The Forms collection only contains loaded forms. If all your forms (except for the MDIForm) are MDIChildren then this would work. Make sure you make "MDIForm" match the actual name of the form!
