I see the problem. I call a library procedure when I want a form loaded, it checks to see if the form is already loaded. If it is then this form is pulled to the top so that the user can continue using it. If it is not, then this procedure calls the form. This procedure could be changed to pass the results of the check for the open form back and I could have logic to load the form or activiate it in the calling code.

However I do have a second question. Do the called forms need to be in the default directory? I have programs for different applications in different directories. In the library procedure I use the following code, where the xPath and xFrmName are passed parameters.

lc_FullName = m.xPath + m.xFrmName
do form (m.lc_FullName)

If memory serves me correctly, it seems that I had a problem trying to call report forms with just the form name as you suggested (no varaibles) and had to append the path to get it to work correctly.

>>When I build my APP and copy it to a directory for testing, it will not run unless I have the SCX and FRX files in the directory. When I look at the files tab on the project, it says that the form is included. Why would it be looking for the from as a seperate file?
