Hi George,

>It would seem, however, to be unnecessary to implement such a procedure (not to mention inconsistent) with the way things work in Windows.

I suppose its a preference: If you have forms that rely on another form, then you start closing them down one by one, and you kill a main form, and the child forms QueryUnload fails, you have an orphaned form that will cause errors later on. You could trap that in the QueryUnload of the parent form, but I'd rather do it my way: make sure all forms are ready to close beofre you close any. I suppose its a preference.
