>>It certainly is. What I've also just discovered is that if I quit the form using the x in the top right corner it works OK, if I use my toolbar to close the form, it doesn't. Without going into explaing all the code in my various methods, the Unload always gets run and Returns the same thing in both instances. I can't see how anything else can affect the outcome!!??

>What command do you use, in your toolbar, to close the form?

Hi
The toolbar calls a formClose method on the form which simply issues a Thisform.Release().
There must be something I've missed if no-one else has ever experienced this.
