Is the child set to be in top level form ? Setfocus() ? Allen -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of MB Software Solutions Sent: 17 May 2007 14:34 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Want to activate child form launched in parent (but keep parent open)
frmParent form has code that does a DO FORM frmChild NAME loFrm and then I do a loFrm.Activate, but the frmParent stays in the foreground and the frmChild is in the background. I want frmChild to get front focus. 'frmChild.Activate' didn't do it...what would? -- Michael J.
