[RESOLVED] [2005] Closing a Form not in Focus

[Bopo]

Hi

Right I have two forms appear when a certain action is performed, one form is purley for visual effects and another displaying an error message. Once the error message form is closed, I would also like to close the other form, however it will not close, I have tried

My.Forms.GreyOut.Focus()
        My.Forms.GreyOut.Close()
 
        Me.Close()

GreyOut.Close()
        Me.Close()

But so far, I havent been able to close it
