>I would be interested in knowing the answer to this question: Which objects in the base class library do not get destroyed properly when you close a form? I spent this weekend looking at a problem on a form which wasn't running its Unload() method when you closed the form from the Close Box. It turned out that two label objects and two other objects on a page frame were not being destroyed when the form closed, thus preventing Unload() from firing. When I forced the destroy within the destroy method of the page, it worked fine. (The two other objects were child classes of the base class TextBox.)

If those are label 'objects' and other objects on a pageframe, are you sure they are not involved in running some method which is either being called recursively or in a cyclic relation? If not, force a NULL to all of them in the Destroy event of the form (if they are objects)
