In VB2003I have been using an exit menu item that issues me.close() then
Private Sub Form1_Closing took care of closing everything down. I don't
see a closing event for form1 in VB2005. What takes it's place?
 
It's called FormClosing now. (Irritating, isn't it?)

There's also an event called FormClosed that will trigger *after*
the form is closed.

Irritating, yes. I hope they had a good reason for it but ...

Yea, I knew "closed" existed but haven't had a use for it yet.
 
That's a good thing. But they didn't have to change the
name from Closing to FormClosing. (Although actually,
I guess they changed it from Unload to FormClosing). They
didn't change the Load event to FormLoading. Where's the
consistency? Oh, the drama of it all! ;-)

Since the Closing event is still present (though deprecated), perhaps
they changed the name to avoid causing any further backwards
compatibility problems.
 
Ah, I see. Fair enough. Well, they could call it "George"
and I'd still use it. I'm just *that* flexible. ;-)
