Topic: method blows right past form

[David Hall]

Maybe I'm just doing it wrong, (probably) but when my method calls my form, it keeps right on going without waiting for the results. What am i doing wrong?

Code: [Select]

BusSupport bsForm = new BusSupport();
bsForm.Show();
string bsAttach = bsForm.BusSupportAttachment;

Database db = HostApplicationServices.WorkingDatabase;
....
this is where I called the form, and this is the form prop.

Code: [Select]

public string BusSupportAttachment
{
get {
return cboBusAttachment.SelectedText;
}
}


[Bryco]

did you want form.ShowDialog();

[Jeff H]

Application.ShowModelessDialog()
or
Application.ShowModalDialog()
 

[David Hall]

Those would make the program wait?  I will have to try that.
 
Once again you guys RULE!!!  Man I have been gone from this for too long.  I have forgotten everything.

The ShowDialog pauses the current function and passes control to the form. When the dialog closes, control is passed back to the originating function. Show merely shows the dialog.
