Easy question

2 forms: Form1 and Form2

Form2 has cmdCancel button:
Public Sub cmdCancel_Click()
    Call EndAll ===> this call unloads Form1
     Unload Me
End Sub

Form1 Unload event:
Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
Dim f As Form
For Each f In Forms
    Unload f
Next
End Sub

Clicking on cmdCancel causes the application termination.
My question is:
Why Form2 does not go through Form_Unload (for the second time)? Is that
always true?
If the form is unloaded Unload Me does not affect anything?
Thanks,
Jack

My question would be why is the form unload there at all. It
only confuses anyone reading the code. It implies EndAll
doesn't close this particular form.
