problem with form1.show

If I use the command form1.showdialog() the form appears
and stays on the screen.

However, if I use form1.show() it appears then
immediately closes. I've spent two hours pulling my hair
out on this one, thumbing through 3 vb.net books.

For now I'm using showdialog, but I need the 'real thing'.

Thanks in advance.

Are you using Application.Run() to start your application?

No, I'm not. I'm starting off with modPrimary, which
includes public sub main.

However, I just changed the causes validation property to
false on the btnClose and that solved the problem. Hmm,
anybody know why?
