I have a form with 3 subform container objects sitting on top of each other. I just use OBJECT SET VISIBLE to hide the ones that don’t need to be seen at the moment.
They all occupy the same space on the parent form, so because I hide the 2 not needed, the ordering on the form does not matter. I use a tab to control which one is visible at the moment. Your buttons could serve the same purpose.
