RE: Windows Form Does Not Close When Using 'X' on ControlBox on Fo

Jeff, Thanks for the response. Let me see if I can try to duplicate the
problem in a test project. My project uses a lot of Backgroundworker threads
and other stuff that makes it a little more difficult to provide to you. It
has other class libraries I made etc. I'll try to get that to you within the
next couple days.

As requested...
I am using the following line of code in File->Exit , which always works
without a hitch...
Private Sub ExitToolsStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e
As EventArgs) Handles ExitToolStripMenuItem.Click
Global.System.Windows.Forms.Application.Exit()
End Sub

Remember 2 things...
- I 'fixed' my problem (ok.. workaround, you got me) by adding the above
line to my FormClosing Event Handler.

-the only time my form doesn't close all the way is when I use the 'X' in
the controlbox. Any calls that I explicitly put in my project to close the
form work just fine. The code-behind stuff in the Microsoft Generated
sections don't do the exact same things as
Global.System.Windows.Forms.Application.Exit() does. I think somebody missed
something somewhere in there.

Again, I'll try to duplicate the problem with a much smaller and more
concise code set.

Hi Jon,

I am not sure if you still need help on this issue. I want to help you find
out why clicking "X" controlbox on the form will not close the form.

Can you tell me what code you are execting in File->Exit menuitem handler
to implement the form closing function?

I suspect there is some code in your form that prevents the form from
closing while clicking the "X" of the form. Can you provide a sample
project to demonstrate this problem? It would be helpful for me to find out
the root cause. You may send the sample project to me at
jetan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx(remove "online.").

I will wait for your further reply, thanks.

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
