I do something similar with my forms:
IF WEXIST('Sampcomm')
SHOW WINDOW sampcomm
ELSE
DO FORM sampcomm
ENDIF
I also have some public variables floating in the background and I can
set these from one form, then call the code above and look for them in
the activate. Do whatever is needed and blank them off. That works
nicely. If you want any more detials let me know.
Cheers
Peter
