Close a form in code

[ltlearn]

How to close a form totally in codes ? I was using "form.hide" all the time which I don't think it is appropriate.

Whether you have 1 or form or 40 forms this is the best way to make there they all are unloaded.

Public Sub EndProg() 
 dim f as Form

    For Each f in Forms

       f.Hide
       Unload f

    Next f

End Sub

I did this before, but the memory still not really release after the "For Each f in Forms" routine. Even I add the Set f = Nothing also not mush help in the memory release issue that I encounter. (I monitor the memory usage through the Task Manager.)

How does we recover all the used memory when a form is unload.

[YoungBuck]

Public Sub EndProg() 
 dim f as Form

    For Each f in Forms

       f.Hide
       Unload f

    Next f

    End ' Try Adding This also

End Sub

I've heard from a few places that VB has some memory management issues so I'm not sure if that is a possibility.

Hi! YoungBuck, noop... What I mean is I have a MDI Form, when I unload a child form (Main program still running) it did not really release the memory.

Chris,

The MDI Child form is associated in memory with the parent form and will leave a footprint. This memory is not released until the parent form is closed.

The way MDI is handled in VB really sucks.

Cheers,
