Greetings All,

I have an app which uses a bunch of modeless forms. I have 2 problems. First, if I am running a form with a couple of list boxes and the user hits "edit" to modify the data on screen, then he opens up another form, possibly one to add a record for one of the pick lists on the other form, I tend to get an error. If I set all the forms to "private data session" will this solve the problem? If not, how?

Second, I also may want to prevent the user from opening another form while in "edit" mode. I placed the following code in the skip option in the menu designer:

iif(_screen.formcount > 0,activeform.edit_mode = .t.,wexist("frmpassword"))

I did this because there may or may not be a form open on the screen. It sort of worked, but noth the way I wanted. If a form opened up, then the user hit "edit", the menu options remained as normal until I tried to select a menu option. At that time was when the menu items became disabled. The same things happened in reverse. When I selected "save" or "cancel", the menu appeared disabled until I tried to select (activate) the menu with the mouse, then it was OK. How can I get this to work right away without actually trying to activate the menu with the mouse or hot keys.

Thanks in advance,

Scott
