Opening and closing!

[bjr149]

I dont know why im having such a problem. I have vb.net 2k3. i have this

Me.Hide()
mainform.Show()

in my login screen if the user enters the correct information.
When i try to exit my program from the mainform its like the program won't close. What the **** is going on?

Do i have to create instances of all the forms>? Like have a Main form. inside that have code like......

Dim main = New mainform
Dim login = New loginform
login.show()
if database.connect
login.hide()
mainform.show()
end if
?????


Im just confused. when i created projects in the initial vb .net (maybe 2000) you just created forms, added them to you project, gave them a name. Then just referenced them whenever you wanted to??????????

i just did what i said in the 2nd part i have a home form. MDIPARENT, then all my children inside of this.

in my home i just have the object of the login form. On a successful DB open within the login frm there is code to show the mainform. TY

If you follow your first solution, you must also close the login-form. It's still there, you just don't see it since it's hidden...
