Closing a form during a constructor

Question

Is it possible to close a form while the constructor is executing (or simply to stop it showing at this stage)?

I have the following code:

public par         


        

Answer 1

The only thing you could do it set a flag to close it in the constructor, and then closing it in the Shown event. Of course, if you're doing that, it makes sense to move the code to determine whether it should be closed there in the first place.
