Michael, Forgive me but I'm a little confused here. Maybe you aren't telling us something or I'm having a bad day, but I really can't see your problem here.
FormA calls FormB and you want the FormB to (1) Appear on top and (2) get focus OK? Well I use this al the time in my apps with no problem SO: If you remove the "if oUtils.AddForm" or everything after the "Do Form" do you still get the same result? Does the problem occur the first time you launch the FormB or subsequent times when the FormB is there and simply needs activating? I do assume you are running the forms in the VFP desktop. If they are "show as desktop" forms then that would explain something. I did say in a previous post it had been a long week so forgive my confusion.
