[DUG] Closing a modal form from code in it

[russell]

Hi John

In the FormClose(sender , action) procedure have you tried action := caFree?

Subject: [DUG] Closing a modal form from code in it

 

I have a modal form that gets called to do some processing (involving Indy), and when it has finished if all is OK I am trying to get the end code after the Indy stuff to show status (which it does) and close the form (which it doesn’t).

 

The statement form2.close is being executed but is not closing the form.

What can stop a modal form being closed,  or any ideas what I need to do to get it to close by itself when its finished?

 

(The form is opened by form2.ShowModal

and the code is in a procedure executed from the OnActivate event  - the Show event also doesn’t work)

 

John
