There's no reason not to use read events. For a single form, you can also declare a global variable, say, oForm and then
do form xxx name oForm
and then RELEASE oForm when you want the form to go away.

>OK, thanks to you both. It turns out I also had to add a missing READ EVENTS: I thought that, if I had main form modal, that might not be necessary, but it didn't work.
