easy (??) question: Open New Form and Close Current Form

[DraguVaso]

Hi,

I want a Login-form that, once the username and password are validated,
opens a new Form (of the 'main'-application), and closes itself.

I tryed it like this: putting the following code in the click-event of the
login-button of my Login-form:
Dim frmAG As New frmAgent
frmAG.Show()
Me.Close()

Thios opens the new form (frmAgent), but at the "Me.Close" it not only
closes my login-form, but also the new openend frmAgent!

Does anybody knows how I'm able to open the frmAgent and close the
login-form? I guess this msut be very easy but I'm not abvle to find it :-/

Thanks a lot!

sub main
dim login as new loginform
if login.showdialog = ok then
application.run(new frmAgent)
end if
end sub

Put the sub in a module and set it as the startup object. Or put it in a
class and add "shared" in front of the "sub" keyword.

Hi Pieter,

Why not the normal way where a main form shows a new dialogform and goes on
when that closes with an OK or closes the application when it is Cancel?

I believe that the TaskVision application does something similar at startup.
You may want to look at the source for this solution to see how it's
handled.
