I have a recurring problem that baffles me. The app is for a lawyer's clients and cases:

1. The user opens up the Client form and locates the desired client.

2. If desired, s/he then pushes the Case button to see case data about the client on the case form. (The Client form is still open.)

3. S/he then pushes the Case Report button on the Case form to see a list of reports about the selected case. S/he selects the desired report. The Case Report form is Release()d. (Now only the Client and Case forms are visible.)

4. The selected report brings up a list of options. S/he selects the desired one. The option form is Release()d.

5. HERE'S THE RUB: I now have to get the answer to a Yes/No question, so I throw a MESSAGEBOX to the screen. It is, for some reason, not visible. I hear my speakers ding, so I know it is invoked; however, I cannot see it so as to respond to it. If, however, I hit the Alt key (all by itself), the MESSAGEBOX pops up! I know this sounds weird, but I replicate it on site as well as on my machine. Any ideas???

TIA.
