Kurt,
It's strange that you need to use the Show Window command.
Do you have a SHOW WINDOW statement in the LOAD or INIT of the class the
form is built with?
Modify form toplevel
Change the caption to "Top Level"
Change the ShowWindow = 1
Add a button
In the click of the button add the following line of code:
Do form intoplevel
Modify form intoplevel
Make it smaller than the toplevel form
Change the caption to "In Top Level"
Change the ShowWIndow = 2
Save both forms then in the command window:
Do form toplevel
Click the button, it should work.
If you really need to use the SHOW WINDOW you will need extra steps.
Pass the parent form.name property to the second form.
The second form will receive this in the INIT event.
It doesn't sound like the second form is Modal, so you could
DO FORM SecondForm NAME InTopLevelForm NOSHOW
SHOW WINDOW (InTopLevelForm.Name) IN (THIS.Name)
