It isn't dependent on who is the "calling form", it is dependent on who gets set as the parent object by sending the parent argument. So you could have this code in FormB: dlg = dabo.ui.dDialog(formA) dlg.show() Indeed, you could even have the parent not be a form: dlg = dabo.ui.dDialog(formA.lblFirstName) dlg.show() Not that you'd want to do that, the point being that it isn't who creates the dialog, but who is explicitly set as the parent... Normally, they'd be equal because you'd have: dlg = dabo.ui.dDialog(self) dlg.show() Paul _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users Searchable Archives: http://leafe.com/archives/search/dabo-users This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
