Hi all, I have a screen that has a browse based on a query, and double clicking a row opens an edit screen on that row. Closing the edit brings you back to the browse. Any changes made and saved on the edit screen are updated on the browse, thanks to requery().
To do this, I've been making the edit screen modal. Works good enough, but the user has a need to be able to use the program's main menu options. Since the form is modal, the items are greyed out. I tried to get around this by making making the edit form modeless, and doing this in the calling form: Thisform.hide() DO EditForm with Thisform && EditForm issues Show() in Destroy event Requery() The hide part works ok, but requery happens immediately. I also tried adding a READ EVENTS before calling EditForm, and issuing CLEAR EVENTS in EditForm destroy, but of course, that didn't work. Is there a way to either: 1. Make the Edit Form Modeless, and make the Calling form suspend operation until the Edit form is closed? 2. Leave the Edit form Modal, but still be able to access the menu items? Would appreciate any help. thanks. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
