v7.5.1 - Custom Close Opportunity View - How to Close the form? Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

I've made some changes to the "System:Close Opportunity" view and I want to add some form validation before closing the form. I've hidden the OK button and added a new "Save" button that triggers my form validation.

The form is opened from "System:Opportunity Detail" with this code:
Set objMainView = Application.MainViews.Add("System:Close Opportunity", 0, False) 'DNL
...
If objMainView.ShowModal = mrOK Then

I tried to close the customized form with both if these options:

Application.BasicFunctions.CloseCurrentView(FALSE) <-- Doesn't do anything to the form

altarnative:

frmCloseOpportunity.ModalResult = mrOK
Application.MainViews.ActiveView.Close <-- Closes the form, the Opp Detail view, and causes an exception

Can someone tell me the proper way to close the form and have the result come back as "mrOK"?

Thanks!

I think I found my answer:

frmCloseOpportunity.ModalResult = mrOK
Application.BasicFunctions.CloseCurrentView FALSE ' Setting 'Cancel' parameter to FALSE means to "post the form"

If there is a better approach, I'd love for someone to please let me know.

Thanks!

Jim, slightly better, leave the OK button in place - notice each form has a OnCloseQuery event - what I do is put my validation in here and then return false to prevent it closing - otherwise, it stays open until your validation occurs.
