Hi Edgar,

If the form being called is modal (WindowType = 1), execution in the calling form is suspended until the called form is either hidden or released. You can have a modal form return a value, but more typically (I think), this situation is handled something like this:

LOCAL loForm
DO FORM MyForm.SCX NAME loForm LINKED
* The following isn't executed until the form is hidden or released
IF VARTYPE(loForm) = "O" AND NOT ISNULL(loForm)
  * Do whatever, the user didn't cancel.
  * Finally when done
  loForm.Release
ENDIF

If you have a close box (the X in the upper right hand corner) or a Cancel command button that issues ThisForm.Release, the code in the IF...END block won't execute.
