Then (probably) you need to set the active form with form.activate somewhere.
Also the behavior may depend on what form WindowType, ShowWindow, and Desktop properties are.

>One of five forms can be called from a combo box on a splash/launcher screen. Once a module (aka form) is selected and the "Launch" button pressed, the splash/launcher is hidden and the appropriate form is launched with a "DO FORM ...". This is when the form is not moveable or closable (despite both properties showing .T.). Child forms do not display this problem. Only the initial form in a particular module.

This causes the newly launched form to lose focus and then get it back, solving the movable/closable problem. It is a solution, but it does not address why this problem started in the first place.
