main() in module sub

[news.microsoft.com]

Hi,

I have my start point set to the main() sub in a module.

In main() I then show my form using the show.dialog method.

Problem I am having is that when an error fires anywhere it the app it falls
back into the main(), and then goes on with code after the showdialog line,
which ends my app.

I know I should be managing my errors better, but I was wondering if the
showdialog is the best way

Use Application.Run(frm) instead of frm.ShowDialog(). For example:
Public Shared Sub Main()
Application.Run(New TestForm())
End Sub

Use 'Application.Run(New MainForm())' instead. Nevertheless, this won't
help if there are no error handlers implemented...
