Hello,

I have a windows forms application that I am creating. When I compile in
debug mode, and run the application, it all functions fine; but when I exit
the application (either via the x at the top of the form window, or via my
own function) it appears that something in the application keeps running, as
I have to manually press the stop debugging menu option before control of
the application actually stops..

Does this mean that something is not cleaning up properly in the
application? And if so, how do I figure out what is causing the issue?

Could this just have something to do with debug mode?

Any help on this would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Jim

ps -> I am using VB.NET 2003, and the Net Framework V1.1
 
No, I am not using threads in this application. The only thing I do that
is kind of unique is all a third party DLL (kind of like a winapi) and have
a call like that in the application.

Hi Jim,
From your description, I get that you used a third party DLL in your application.

Before we go further, let's narrow down your problem.
Firstly, you could try to remove the use of that dll to see if you can close the application
correctly?
If yes, please contact that third part DLL provider on this problem first.
If not, could you tell us how to repro your problem please?

thanks.
