The 'end' command does not seem to be supported in .NET CF for SmartPhone...

So would I be right in saying that, in line with the Microsoft Logo Certification guidelines, you cannot 'quit' an application?

OK, it's sad to answer your own question, but the function is:

Application.Exit();

There's nothing like solving your own problems!

I think you need to do a this.Close(); from the open form. When the last form is closed the app dies. Application.Exit() isn't great - it can bypass a bit of garbage collection.

this.dispose
and then
application.exit

and maybe GC.collect before even the close...

that is one of the best ways..

End doesnt exist in .net anymore (not even the full .net library)

As a best practice, it is not advisable to call GC.Collect() since the GC is asynchronous and may well be in the middle of a clean-up cycle when you call GC.Collect().
