I mean, each calling form has not completed its list of tasks until each call to another form has completed.

To make it seem like the calling forms DO close, when calling their children, you could make them invisible before the call to the child.

Also, if the called forms are modal then this might make the difference.

BTW, I've told you before, it's wasn't, not was'nt :-)
