subform closes parent form?

[PaulWilson]

I have login form (frmB) placed as a subform on a parent form (frmA).
When a user logs in, the login subform (frmB) opens another form (frmC).
I then want form (frmA) having (frmB) to close.

frmC opens OK, but...

DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmA" does not close frmA.

Why not?

I'm using Access 2007 with tabbed windows.

frmA.visible = False

This won't close it, but you won't see it either.

Instead of the code you have, try this:

DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Parent.Name, acSaveNo
