Weird Behavior in ShowDialog()

Hi all,

I have a main window application Form A that calls
ShowDialog() of Form B in the Click event of Form A.

Sometimes when I hit the cancel button on Form B, Form B
closes and SURPRISINGLY Form A closes as well (ie. the
whole application exits).

Anyone knows what happens here?

Any help or reference to helpful articles would be greatly
appreciated.
Thank you.

regards,
Sean

Click to expand...

Maybe assigning 'None' to the button's 'DialogResult' and adding this code
to the button's 'Click' event handler solves the problem:

\\\
Me.DialogResult = DialogResult.Cancel
Me.Close()
///
