I'm new to GamBas and loving it as it brings back memories of using Basic on my old BBC Micro computer. Now using Linux, I am Starting to learn about the controls and events in GamBas.

Can somebody help me. I have 2 forms open on screen (eg Form1 and Form2), if Form 2 is closed using the 'X' in the top right hand corner, how can Form1 detect this when it happens ?.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

 Form2 has an event.
Public Sub Form_Close()

That is triggered when the close window is called


You can make a 'public' function in Form1…

Public Sub Form2Closed()

End

And in Form2 write.

Public Sub Form_Close()
Form1.Form2Closed()
End

If you are happy to have the 1st Form wait until 2nd Form is closed you can open the 2nd Form with:-


The next command in the 1st Form will not be processed until the 2nd Form is closed.

Thanks guys,  tried both methods and it all work a treat. Great.
