This text is in a child and doesn't close the Parent, BUT when this.Close(); is this.Mdiparent.close(); it does work

private void btnOk_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if ((tbPass.Text == PasswordReal) && (tbUser.Text == UsernameReal))
            {
                this.Close();
            }
            else
            {
                {
                    DialogResult result = MessageBox.Show("Username and/or Password are incorrect. Enter again?", "Incorrect", MessageBoxButtons.RetryCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Question, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1);

                    if (result == DialogResult.Retry)
                    {
                        tbPass.Text = "";
                        tbUser.Text = "";
                    }
                    else if (result == DialogResult.No)
                    {
                        this.MdiParent.Close();

                    }
                }
            }

Why, what happens?

[Keuvie]

uhm, nothing :P

[Xav]

Try this:

MessageBox.Show("Xav's line of code was the problem.");

this.MDIParent.Close().

Run the project. If the message is shown, then my code is the problem. If not, it's your code.

When there is no password i get your messagebox

private void btnOk_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if ((tbPass.Text == PasswordReal) && (tbUser.Text == UsernameReal))
            {
                this.Close();
            }
            else
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Xav's line of code was the problem.");
                this.MdiParent.Close();
                
                    /*DialogResult result = MessageBox.Show("Username and/or Password are incorrect. Enter again?", "Incorrect", MessageBoxButtons.RetryCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Question, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1);

                    if (result == DialogResult.Retry)
                    {
                        tbPass.Text = "";
                        tbUser.Text = "";
                    }
                    else if (result == DialogResult.No)
                    {
                        
                    }*/
                
            }

And with my message, does it close the parent form afterwards?

[Keuvie]

i get your messagebox and then it closes the parent

[Xav]

Isn't that what you want?
