Pass the value if found or not to the form's init. Call the form with:

DO form myform NAME omyform WITH .F.

and then in the form's init put something like:

LPARAMETERS llfound
DODEFAULT()
this.show()
IF !llfound
   =MESSAGEBOX('No matching record found.')
ENDIF

>I have a program which when executed runs a procedure which finds a record and then displays the information in a form. If no record is found it displays a messagebox stating no record. The problem is the messagebox shows up before the form is on the screen. How do I change this so that the form is displayed and then the messagebox?
