Closing Multiple Forms

Hi Everyone,

I have an application in the following order.

Form 1 - User Enters Part Number. After certain basic
validation against the file, Form 2 is show with details
pertaining to the part number.
Form 2 Has menu options like File Open, NEW, SAVE, PRINT
PREVIEW, PrINTER SETUP and EXIT.

While on Form 2, if the user clicks option NEW I show the
Form 1 again asking the user to enter the part number up
which I validate the file again and show the Form 2 with
the new entered part number details.

All call routines and validation are in a Module.

The problem I am having is that windows show the multiple
forms as been opened.

My question is how do I close or hide or unload the
previous form or forms when the user clicks the NEW
option each time in the FORM 2

Appreciate help.

Suresh

Hi. I have an MDI Parent form with multiple child windows. When I close the parent form, the Closing events of the children forms are not executing. Do I have to close all the child forms in the parent's closing event in order to get the closing events of the children forms to execute? Thanks. -Barry

For some reason, when I click the X to close my MDI parent form, the action appears to be re-directed to one of the MDI child forms, and the parent remains open. I am then unable to close the application. What should happen, is that the main MDI form should close, taking the child forms with it. There is code to loop through the child forms, remove the controls on each of them, and then close the form, but this code should execute only...

Moving from form to form seems straight forward - but how would one go about closing a form FROM another form? I use me.close - to close out a form and the following to open ("jump to") a new form: dim f2 as new form2 form2.showdialog() How would one go about closing a form - FROM - another form? In other words closing form 1 - FROM - form2

Does it make sense to put this If e.Cancel Then Exit Sub at the beginning of form closing events so if the user cancels the app's exiting in one Closing routine he will not be asked again by another when its form Closing routine is run? I guess what I'm asking is will that work. If one form sets e.cancelled to true will e.cancel be true when the next form receives a closing event?

I am (still) relatively new to Windows applications, most of my experience has been Web based, and I am confused about what exactly happens when the Main() method is called and how to manipulate forms opening & closing. An example of this issue is as follows. I have a logon form open as the first thing. The main functional form opens when a user has successfully logged on.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
