Thelenj,
If you use Form.Show, then you DO NOT need to use Form.Dispose.
If you use Form.ShowDialog, then you NEED to use Form.Dispose.
The reason being is that a modeless form (Form.Show) calls Form.Dispose as
part of its closing event. Where as a modal form (Form.ShowDialog) does not
call Form.Dispose as part of its closing event, allowing you to retrieve
values from any controls after showing the dialog.

Hope this helps

I create a form in a sub.
The form just displays some information for the user and then the user may
close it.
Should I be calling the forms Dispose method?
Why?
