>I have a need for a form to be displayed on top of another form, which I can do. But I need to be able to edit data on the large main form while the small overlayed form is still on the screen. If anyone can tell me how to stay on the main form for editing and still show the small form on top, I would appreciate it.

do parentform linked name loform1 
loform1.Name="loform1"
do childform linked name loform2 noshow
loform2.Name="loform2"
