Open new form, close current one

[PROKA]

ok so I have this in a module :

Public frm As New mainForm()

 

and this in a button click sub :

frm.Show()

 

with the button I want also to close the current form .

 

It works with

Me.Hide()

( same result for the end-user ) but I know this doesn't unload the form from memory ...

 

doesn't work with

Me.Close()

, because it closes both forms

You don't have much choice than hiding if the first form you are trying to close is the form the application loop depends on, if the form closes so does that application loop.

close/open forms

 

I have had the same irritating 'problem':

 

let's see if I can attach here a zip-file

if they arrive, youre problems are solved

for alway's and ever.

Attaching binary files is against the forum rules :).

As I said before, if you want to keep your application loop alive then the form it is running against can't be closed down. Why don't you simply want to hide it?
