Hi Joe, thanks for your reply. I didn't use FrmGotoForm because that closes the currently active form, which i didn;t want to do. This is because i am building a folder tabbed screen. So when you click the folder tab it switches to another form. I obviosuly don't want the previous form closed because if they've entered something there i don;t want to free all the Text and settings they may have entered.
FrmPopupForm has the problem that it attempts to re-load a form that i potentially have already loaded. Do most folder tabbed screens just use FrmGotoForms and remember everything until the user presses OK? I thought it would be easier and faster for the user to keep all the forms they have accessed in memory and then commit them to the database when they press OK. Thanks. regards, george B --- George Bassili <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Sorry, to repost this question everyone, but i'm at my whitsend. > ... > My initial form is loaded into memory using FrmInitForm and > FrmSetActiveForm, then drawn using FrmDrawForm. > > Without unloading this form, i load a second form using the > smae method.
