There is still a problem actuallly
when the 2nd form opens up and contains "form2.close()"
both windows close
it also does this when the form2.close() command into the module
any ideas why the form can't be terminated by itself?
also, i tried creating a sub main() in the module and calling an instance of the first window with showdialoge()
then the 2nd form right after with just show()
can i has a module as a startup object?
