Not automatically. You need to call FrmCloseAllForms in your program
appStopEvent handler.

You'll need to intercept these events before the system event handler is
called. If you catch the keyDownEvents in your form handler, its too
late -- the appStopEvent has already been queued.

If you're using a 3.5 debug ROM, you need to be able to handle the
frmUpdateEvent. This means redrawing anything in your form not drawn by the
FrmDrawForm call. See the archives of this group for details. You really
need to do this for any ROM version, but the 3.5 debug versions make it
explicit so you don't miss doing it.
