I had a similar problem, and I resolved it by using FrmGotoForm,
this closes the form in order to redraw the other form once you call a getactiveform.

Subject: FrmPopupForm???...
Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:35:34 -0500
Hi everyone. I have two forms (A and B). Form A is the "base" form, or the
form that the user is currently looking at. On this form, there are some
control buttons and a bitmap being custom-drawn with a simple
WinDrawBitmap() call...
Now, I hit a menu item to bring up form B over most of form A with a call to
FrmPopupForm(). I use this call because I want my own event handlers for
form B. Anyway, when I cancel out of form B with a call to
FrmReturnToForm( 0 ), the bitmap does not draw itself initially. I want to
call my drawing routine when the user returns to form A...and I cannot call
my rendering routine from within form B.
Any ideas are always appreciated. Ideally, I am looking for some sort of
event in form A's handler that I can catch, then redraw the bitmap.
