Do We Have To Unload The Controls In A Control Array Before We Unload The Form?
I load some controls in a control array in a form. When I unload the form, do I have to unload these controls explicityly using code, or will they be unloaded from the memory automatically?

Unable To Unload A Form Using Unload
This problem is a strange one....atleast for me.I have used the following code in a form called frmSubScreen:

Function show_mgr(emp_id As String)
frmMgrScreen.mgr_id = emp_id
frmMgrScreen.Show
unload frmSubScreen
End Function

This works fine.The new form is shown & frmsubscreen gets unloaded.The problem is in the next snippet of code:
Private Sub cmbViewChoice_Click()
txt = "40001"

If cmbViewChoice.ListIndex = 0 Then
frmFirstProcessScreen.emp_id = txt
frmFirstProcessScreen.Show
unload frmSubScreen
ElseIf cmbViewChoice.ListIndex = 1 Then
frmFirstCtqScreen.emp_id = txt
frmFirstCtqScreen.Show
unload frmSubScreen
ElseIf cmbViewChoice.ListIndex = 2 Then
frmFirstClientScreen.emp_id = txt
frmFirstClientScreen.Show
unload frmSubScreen
End If
End Sub

When this code placed in the same form is executed the new form is shown depending on the right if case but the frmSubScreen form is not unloaded.What i mean is the new form is displayed but then i get an error message - "unable to unload within this context" run time error 365.

Can anyone figure this out?Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks a lot

Don't Unload The Form
I have created a form with a 'OK' button and a 'Cancel' button. Alongwhich, there are 2 combo boxes which allows the user to choose the month and year respectively.

I have written a error checking VBA code to produce an error message if the user did not choose either of the boxes.

Code:
p = Format(Form.ComboMonth.Value, "mm")
r = Form.ComboYear.Value

If (p = "") Or (r = "") Then
MsgBox "Please Input the required Month and Year."
Exit Sub
End If
however, the form will be unloaded and i have to go into the program again. is there any way to replace the "Exit Sub" statement, such that after the error message is displayed and the user clicks the 'OK' button, it returns back to the form to allow the user to choose the month and year inputs from the form again?

thx for any inputs

Unload Form
I would like to make a form that, if you click any item on it, Frame, Listbox, textbox, Form, etc, it will close the form. This can be achieved by putting Unload Me for a click event for every item, but I know there is a way to do a for... next to unload the form with just one Unload Me. Does anyone know what it is?

ESC To Unload Form
I would like to use the ESC key to unload forms in a MDI form.
So if the user has several forms open, they can just hit ESC to unload the form with focus
I tried this, but nothing happen

Private Sub Form_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
If KeyAscii = 27 Then
Unload Me
End Sub

Can someone give me a hint?

Thanks

Form Unload
I was told by another programmer here, who has gone for the day, to set my form to nothing. He said to put in my unload event the following:

frmForm = Nothing

for each form. I did this and got the following error:

Compile Error: Function or interface marked as restricted, or the function uses an Automation type not supported in Visual Basic

What am I doing by setting the form to nothing? Clearing that block of memory? Thought the unload me did this? and finally why am I getting a error?

Thanks again !

Unload Form
I have an another question. How do I make my program not exit when ever the x is pressed on the top right corner. Instead I want my program to minimize Me.WindowState = vbMinimized.

-Hao Li-

Form Unload
I'm trying to list all the controls for each form in my application. I'm using the forms.add "form name" to add each form and then I'm retrieving each control.

My problem occurs when I try to get rid of each form that I added. The remove method doesn't apply to forms.

Any suggestions?

Unload Form
Hi, I have a form with 2 chekbox in it. The user have to check one of those if he want to continue. If the user press the X in the right corner of the window, I put some code in the Form_unload() to verify that. I open a message box and the user have to choose No if he want to exit the program (that works great) and Yes if he wants to return in the window and check a box. But if the user press Yes, my form is unload.... How can i return to my form without unloading it?

thanks

When Does The Form Unload?
I've built a DLL for an application, but when I close the application I get an application error, saying the memory could not be read. The error only happens on shutdown.

Well, I assume the problem is because I've got some object or variable that is still set to something. I've got classes and forms and in all of them, I try to set all objects equal to nothing.

I also set up MsgBoxes in all the class terminates or form unloads to tell me when they were triggered. I've got one form that never cycles through its form_unload.

Here's my question: will forms automatically unload when I close the application? When, in a class terminate event, I say "Unload frmNewTableManager", will that go to my form code and look for my form_unload procedure and run that? Or is that command different?

If this isn't the problem, does anyone know how to properly clear out all my objects and the such?

Form Unload
with this

Code:
Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
what does the cancel mean?

my aim is to test if items that have been selected on the unload form event, giving the user an option to either discard or save their selections with a message box
the exit sub does not seem to work here
any help??

Unload A Form In DLL (how?)
Hi guys,

Unload Form
I see two lines in the VB Code I'm working on:

Unload Form1
Set Form1 = Nothing

My question is, does Set Form1 = Nothing really do anything?
Doesn't Unload Form1 also set the form object to null?

Unload Form
I have form1 and one button with caption 'enter'. I also adding a msgbox in the for form1 Close (X) for comfirmation by the user to exit the program.

Code:
Private Sub Form_QueryUnload(Cancel As Integer, UnloadMode As Integer)
Dim msbResponse As VbMsgBoxResult
msbResponse = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to exit?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion, "Confirm Exit")
If msbResponse = vbNo Then
Cancel = -1
End If
End Sub

When I click the X button in form1, I got the conformation. It fine.

But When I hit the enter button in form1 to go to next form,I got the message "Are you sure you want to exit?".How to do that, so that the messge box not appear when I hit the enter button?

Code:
Private Sub cmdEnter_Click()

frmtimer.Show
Unload Me

End Sub

Form Unload
Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
MsgBox "Please Click Exit to Terminate Program", vbOKOnly, "ERROT"

End Sub

how do i ignore the form being unload by the user instead of click the exit button>?thanks

Why is my form not unloading when I code "Unload myfrm"??

Unload Form
Hello,

I have a function loading a form, showing it and waiting for it to unload. The problem is that for some reason, after I unload the form, it's not removed from the Forms collection, and so the function can't determine it.

Can someone explain me why the form is in the Forms collection although it's not loaded?

Thanks.

Unload Any Form?
OK, i tried to search for this, but it's so freakin slow, i finally cancelled it...

Anyways.. i have several forms that could be loaded. Basically, certain forms are loaded depending on the initial selection that is made.

The question is, how do you unload all of the open forms EXCEPT for the initial one? And I don't want to create an unload select statement because there are too many cases.

Any help appreciated.
