Notify Parent Form of close

[K Shaffer]

How can I make a modeless form notify its parent that it has closed? Thanks -mE

Your parent form should catch the modeless form's Closed event. Parent Form Code:

Public Class ParentForm : Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
'
' Keep a member variable of modeless form. Use WithEvents.
Private WithEvents myModelessForm As New ModelessForm
'
' Show the modeless form.
Private Sub ParentForm_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles MyBase.Load
myModelessForm.Show()
End Sub
'
' Catch the modeless form's Closed event.
Private Sub myModelessForm_Closed(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles myModelessForm.Closed
MessageBox.Show("Modeless form was closed!")
End Sub
End Class
