Your best bet is for the modal form to send a frmUpdateEvent to the
first form when the modal form closes. Define your own custom event
types, etc. Use the Sample code provided by Palm for an example.
To _really_ answer your question, FrmReturnToForm() doesn't generate
a frmClose event, so you can't catch it there. You may be able to
look for WinEnter and WinClose events, but the update method is much
cleaner, IMO.
