Efficient way to close forms

[Guest]

Hello,

I am fairly new to Visual Basic and would appreciate any help. I have an
application with a lot of ActiveX controls. When I close the form, it
doesn't close immediately; it seems to "clear" all the controls first and
then the form closes. Is there a way to close the form all in one shot?
Thank you.

Have you tried hiding the form, before closing it? That would give you
the appearance of a quick close, while still letting VB tear down the form
in the normal manner....
