Hi George: Once again, I will have to figure out a way to provide a reduced version of my 100mb llb so you can see this. I'm tied up this week but will try to address.
The thing that I wonder is if the main panel has a 'window always ontopness' property assigned programmatically to it in its last run (I had to use windows management winutil.llb VIs quite extensively in this app) that is in fact staying as a property of this panel. I suppose I could test this by revoking the 'window on topness' during shutdown case of the VI, then rerunning the code to see if I still run into the same problem of the modal window showing up behind the main panel. But I would think once the VI shuts down, all properties assigned by the winutil.llb will be automatically revoked, and as mentioned previously, it works fine on win2K regardless.
