Naomi,

I do have an array that holds object references to each form that opens.

It works quite well I must say, but not when I issue

ofrmCustomerDataEntry = CREATEOBJECT( "frmCustomerDataEntry" )
ofrmCustomerDataEntry.Show()

The above will just see the form appear and disappear right away.

It works well if I use my 'old' way of:

DO FORM frmCustomerDataEntry NAME ofrmCustomerDataEntry

>You can have an array property in your form manager class and have this array property hold a reference to each open form. When you done with the form, you should set this array element to NULL.
