>If I remember FPW correctly, there really was no Modal/Modeless - you had screens (1 modal form) and screen sets (multiple modeless forms).

I'm afraid you don't (remember correctly). There was modal behaviour built in, but it was a clause of the READ command, you didn't make a window modal in your DEFINE WINDOW command (or the Screen Builder).

>When WindowType is set to 1 (modal), it is *impossible* to activate any other form. Make sure this property is correct.

You're sure right here, though. Pascal, if the form isn't acting modal, there must be a bit of code somewhere (ChildForm.Load, ChildForm.Init? others suggested ChildForm.Show) which is changing the child form's WindowType to 0.
