Hi
I'm trying to make something i tought is was simple
if i press the cross on the childform to close it, i want it to hide.
but when i press a button on the parrent i want to close the child.
so on the child i made a formclosing handler an in the handler i put:
this.hide();
now on the parrentform i do:
parrentform.Clo se();
but... ofcourse when i do this the closing eventhandler on the form is
called and the form hides itselfe.
what can i do?

Maarten,
Expose a flag on the child form which indicates whether or not the
parent form is closing it. Before the parent form closes the child form,
set the flag to true.
Then, in your form closing event handler, check the flag. If the flag
is true, then do not hide the form and cancel the event, rather, just let it
close.
Hope this helps.

Maarten,
Expose a property that the parent form will call which will set a flag
on the child form. Either that, or expose another Close method which the
parent form will call which will set the flag in the child form internally.

Before getting pistol whipped, I know this is a well-worn topic but I
don't see the answer...
I know how to hide the Access window, I know how to disable the Access
application's close button, but how do you HIDE the Access close
button.
Also, while I'm at it, what I really want to do is to hide the Access
application's minimize, mazimize and close buttons.
Thanks,
