VB Forum / General / January 2005VB6 Application closure
How do You close UserDocument.vbd from VB6 code? How do you close an application from VB6? Once I exit my application, the window with UserDocument.dob file stays open. As I close my application I want this window to be closed too. How do I do that. Thanx > How do You close UserDocument.vbd from VB6 code? From what I read IE creates a hidden reference to your ActiveX Document and holds the reference for approx. 10min regardless of the number of documents that have been viewed since. Closing IE will release the reference and the documents terminate event will fire... > How do you close an application from VB6? Unload all forms and release all objects Just curious how and why are you using ActiveX Documents?

Dim f as Form For Each f in Forms Unload f Next for the objects, you're on your own. Just keep track of any you create and make sure they're gone (their reference is released) when you attempt to shut down.

Signature[Microsoft Basic: 1976-2001, RIP] Forms you can use: Dim MyForm As Form For Each MyForm In Forms Unload MyForm Set MyForm = Nothing Next Objects: You have to cleanup after yourself. Most of the time the objects will be released when the variable holding them goes out of scope. Problem with that is certain objects require more hand holding (like closing a DB connection)...

I have UserDocument_Terminate function which only has END command in it, and if everything is cleaned properly, it should go to terminate and close itself? Wright? Thanx Barbara >-----Original Message----- >Forms you can use: [quoted text clipped - 50 lines] > >. > So > Does it mean that once all the forms are unloaded, and [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Thanx > Barbara There's no reason to use End... in fact, get rid of it because it may be causing you problems. Think of End stopping your program being equal to turning of a TV by yanking its plug out of the wall (I'd say "record player", but, these days, people would say "what's a record?" or "what's a record player?" <g>) To answer the initial question though, Yes.... a VB program "dies" on its own when all objects are released, all forms are unloaded and it runs the final 'End Sub' in your app. A quick demo of that needs a new EXE project with a single command button.

End Sub 'Program dies after running this line '=========== SignatureKen Halter - MS-MVP-VB - http://www.vbsight.com Please keep all discussions in the groups.. Sorry to bug you so much, but I really want ot understand what is going on. When my program ends, what I am left with is is an empty UserDocument.vbd open in Microsoft Internet Explorer (the pick that was displayed is no longer there). So this Microsoft Internet Explorer window is part of the VB application? When I look under Windows Task Manager everything is closed except IE, and that is what confuses me. >-----Original Message----- >> So [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] >End Sub 'Program dies after running this line >'=========== I know that you use the internet to runyour userdocument you just navigate to another page or go back to home page. That's how I understand it. I'm new to this forum but I wrote also userdocument and it running now at my website . trying to improve it. > How do You close UserDocument.vbd from VB6 code? > How do you close an application from VB6?
