[AccessD] subform close

>> I have never tried to unload a subform from inside of itself.

I have to test out the code I just posted to William and it works just fine.

Gustav brings up a good point though, trying to do this from 
inside of the subform might cause a page fault as the code 
that is running that unloads the subform may not end before 
the subform unloads.

I have never tried to unload a subform from inside of itself.
