Thanks Terry and Russ,
maybe I should add this.
Even if the main window is opened, closing a particular one window
not only closes that window but the whole app shuts down. Other
windows don't do that.
I am referring to the top left red button.
So what I had to do was to add a pushbutton just under that and in
its action event I put Close, now clicking on that pushbutton only
closes that window, the whole app don't shut down.
Hi again Lennox.
So - what's the difference between the top left red button to close a
window, and your pushbutton?
The difference is that the red button will work even if the window
it's on is not the frontmost, active window. Clicking on it will not
first make the window active. Clicking on your pushbutton will.
So - what to look for?
Do you have any global variables hidden away in a module somewhere
that depend on the active window? Do you have anything within the
window that needs it to be the active window?
