I have a button that displays an OpenFileDialog window, what I need to do is to close this window once the user closed the container window, because when the user closes the container window, the OpenFileDialog window persists.

OpenFileDialog only has ShowDialog() (Visual Studio 2010, 2008, 2005) so it cannot persist as the user cannot close the container app. Earlier versions may need you to use ShowDialog() when opening the OpenFileDialog.
