Hi Larry,
I think you need to use the code
Frm.Dispose() or Frm = Nothing
to mark all the form;s controls for garbage collection, as you are using ShowDialog to display you Form2
Please read the URL below.
According to the Microsoft website said:
<<
When a form is closed, all resources created within the object are closed and the form is disposed. You can prevent the closing of a form at run time by handling the Closing event and setting the Cancel property of the CancelEventArgs passed as a parameter to your event handler. If the form you are closing is the startup form of your application, your application ends.
The two conditions when a form is not disposed on Close is when (1) it is part of a multiple-document interface (MDI) application, and the form is not visible; and (2) you have displayed the form using ShowDialog. In these cases, you will need to call Dispose manually to mark all of the form's controls for garbage collection.

Hope this help.
