When must I set a variable to “Nothing” in VB6?

Question

In one of my VB6 forms, I create several other Form objects and store them in member variables.

Private m_frm1 as MyForm
Private m_frm2 as MyForm

// Later...
Se         


        

Answer 1

I had a problem similar to this a while back. I seem to think it would also prevent the app from closing, but it may be applicable here.

I pulled up the old code and it looks something like:

Dim y As Long
For y = 0 To Forms.Count -1
    Unload Forms(x)
Next

It may be safer to Unload the m_frm1. and not just set it to nothing.
