    This is stated in the questions linked below, but I’ll mention here that Programming WPF (Chris Sells, Ian Griffiths) says:

    ShowDialog will always return true or
    false. … Only after a dialog has
    been shown but before it’s been closed
    is DialogResult null.

    Similar question: When would ShowDialog() return null?

    And: Why is DialogResult a nullable bool in WPF?
