I was keeping the forms modal so that one screen can be show at a time. Why doesn't foxpro make it simple so that main window is something we don't have to deal with. Anyway I appreciate the help.

Mike answered the question of why things won't work.

An alternative is to do something a little tricky, like: make B modeless & Desktop = .T. Then move A off the screen, like .Left = -10000 while B is active, then move it back when you're ready. Perhaps you get the idea?

I use some little tricks like that at times...TLs are really very flexible, once you understand how they work.
