>The main program in my project calls a modal form that calls a mpx in it's init. The form is the "home page" for the app and I want the menu items to execute certain controls and methods on the form. I can set skip of menu in the form/prg but can a menu execute tasks methods and events in a form?

Execute the form as follows:

LOCAL loForm
_SCREEN.AddProperty("MyForm")
DO FORM MyForm NAME loForm
_SCREEN.MyForm = loForm
...

Then in the menu you can access the form methods as follows:

_SCREEN.MyForm.MyMethod()
