Does your top level form contain any objects? If not, It wouldn't receive focus (I suppose)

>My framework uses a toplevel form instead of _SCREEN. When the toplevel form is activated, _SCREEN.ActiveForm returns the correct object reference to the toplevel form.

>The problem occurs when I shift focus back to the toplevel form after a child form has been activated. _SCREEN.ActiveForm will always return the reference to the last child form activated even after the toplevel form's Activate event has fired and now has focus.
