When i do
Form1.close
The whole thing closes ;/ ??
When FORM2 opens
I want FORM1 to close.

So just FORM2 will be showing. Instead of Both of them Closing.
And when i put in Form1.hide
Both FORM1 and FORM2 close. or (hide)

@ Lonely , I was talking about you , and the indicates ...a joke... Anyone proficient in vb.net will know what is actually happening here. Form1 has code that says form1.hide() , anyone new to vb.net will have both forms close on them and may not understand why if they are new to developing in visual basic, wanna know why? You are the self proclaimed super vb hacker...? Well, I will explain it to you. What is actually happening is either his compiled application is closing (crashing) or his test/debug is "breaking" , this happens because form1 can not refer to itself as form1 anymore, the active form should be referred to as
Code:
me
they do not (cannot) refer to themselves through their default instance - using the identifiers given to them ...IE
Code:
form1.close
will not close form1 if the code is in form1 it should be
Code:
 me.close
That my friend is extreme basic visual basic .net development. So , I called you a newb. and even though the meaning was intentional, I was not trying to be harsh, hense the , I would never call a new member a newb, i admire anyone trying to learn a language. Only someone who is cocky and proclaims they are great coders and hackers but miss something as small as that. And with all that said, My suggestion isn't even close to yours, yours is just plain wrong.

Sorry, another thing I thought I should contribute is that if you really want to close form1, and not just hide it, you'll need to go into Project Properties and go to the "Application" tab, from there just scroll down a little until you see "Shutdown when" And pick "Last form closes" instead of "When startup form closes". That way if you close form1 by accident but still want to use form2, it won't just close the whole app.
