Login form
I've created a login form where user types in credentials. Once the credentials are validated I want to close the login form and launch another form which would be the main application thread. What is the appropriate way to do this?
ASKER
The problem with that is that the application never closes then.
For exit out of application use Application.Exit()
As you are Hide the for opening another form instead of hide use close form.

Another solution is dont keep your LoginForm as main form.
Instread of that use another form as a mainform and in that load event of another form use loginform.showdialog()

I jumped the gun - I like this idea better
You can do a Form1.Hide and Form2.show
