Me.Close does not work

Question

I\'m working with VB.net. I’m having problems while I connect my application to my database today so I wanted to add an error handling to close the form.

The problem

Answer 1

Close will close a form, but only if it has no more code to run.

That is, there are two conditions that need to be fulfilled for a form to close:

• Close must be called
• Any method still running must be left

I suspect that another method is still running code, for instance a loop or other code that causes the form to remain open.

Furthermore, the form will get re-opened automatically once you start accessing its members form elsewhere, due to an infuriating property of VB to auto-instantiate forms.
