Just use .show (and have the buttons on the dialogs do a .close) is the easy
answer.
I have to say, the real answer would be to sit down with your users & design
a proper non-modal user interface -
modal dialogs should be used only when you have to constrain the user for
some reason..

Subject: [DUG]: Show/ShowModal
I've been merrily writing an app that is basically a main form (with a
pretty picture)with a TMainMenu launching relevant forms. All the forms are
"ShowModal", unfortunately the users now want the ability to open more than
one form at once.
What is the correct way of doing this?
