VB6 BlackJack

[Cruncher]

K i made a near fully functioning blackjack excluding only the split.

i would like to give a HUGE shoutout to techorobbo, he helped me with a lot of coding evident by this thread

anywhere heres the attached ment, tell me what you think

EDIT: link reuploaded, there was an issue with the application not actually closing that has been resolved

I just tried this and after I quit the game blackjack.exe was still running. You may want to look into this.

[Cruncher]

I noticed that, do you know how thats fixable? do i need to put a button that actually runs the end command? i beleive the standard windows "x" should do the job :S

[ngreenwood6]

Is that form your main form?

[Cruncher]

i have 4 forms dialog dialog 2 dialog 3 and Form1(the main form where blackjack is played)

[ngreenwood6]

hmmm. if that is the main application form then it should be exiting. One way you may be able to fix it is by adding:

Application.Exit();

to the forms closing or closed event.

Please do not inclide exe files in you upload.

[technorobbo]

If you have multiple forms the app wont end until all forms are unloaded. A hidden form is not unloaded so specifically unload the form.
example

Unload me

The "X" just tells that particular form to unload, what else happens is up to you.

There are a couple of articles about this in our Classic VB FAQs (in the FAQ forum, which is shown near the top of our home page).

First off, there is Why is using the 'End' statement (or VB's "stop" button) a bad idea?

Then for an explanation (and example code) for how you should be closing a form/program, see the article How should I close my form/program/class?

Cruncher,
Put this code in your Blackjack.frm and it should fix it up

Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
Dim f As Form
For Each f In Forms
Unload f
Next
End Sub

Fixed, thanks
