    end program

    hi all

    is there a better way to close a program then use end , becouse i think my
    win 98 doesn't agree with this method.

    there is something strange

    wen i close my program with the button in the frame, it says there has been
    an error an my program has te shut down (not that bad becouse i was closing
    it anyway), but it ain't nice.

    i us the unloadstatement to display a box to confirm.

    but when i close my program with my closebutton i don't get the error

    i tought that when i closed my program with te close button, the
    unloadstatement also runs ( actualy it does, becouse it dispalays the box to
    confirm).

    but why do i get an error when i press the unloadstatement directly and why
    it don't sends an error when i do it via my closebutton.

    realy strange behaviour.

    hope someone knows why

    kind regards maarten.

      well you should not use end at all !

      End is a reminder of good old basic and may only be used in a program that
      exists only by code modules

      Using end is considered bad programming as it prevents propper cleanup of
      objects loaded in memory

      you should unload all forms , and set all object pointers to nothing this
      will terminate you program
