You can use javascript: self.close()

If you are closing it using an asp.net button then add attribute to button on page load event:

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Me.myButton.Attributes.Add("onclick", "self.close()")
End Sub

But I think that you wont be able to close the main form without alert box because of the security reasons.

you are propaply adding Attributes.Add method in button click event. you have to put in in some event that will trigger before button click event (like in Page Load event)

Right you should add an attribute before you intend to click the button. Btw, you can do the same in many ways ... say you can make a classic JavaScript function for closing current window and then call it either through server side button (web forms) or through client side button (HTML input tag)

[COLOR=darkgreen]'remove the empty spaces before and after "<>" if u want to use this func[/COLOR]
< script language="javascript" > 
function closewindow() {
mywindow=window.close()
}
< /script >

< input type="button" value="Close the window" onclick="closewindow()" >
