Here is what i do:
In the parent form:
def callEditForm(self, newrecmode):
frm = EditForm.EditForm(ParentForm=self, ...)
self.hide()
frm.show()
In the child form:
def save(self, dataSource=None, closeafter=False):
self.save(dataSource=dataSource)
parent = self.ParentForm
if parent != None:
parent.show()
self.close()
Now the parent gets hidden while showing the childform.
The child is somhow modal to the parent.
