Sorry, I jumped the gun by correcting you.
We see this behavior as being a bad choice. We wanted to set the visible property to false so the user only see a second form that was launched by the first modal form. This new form is modal. When it closes, we want to return focus back to the first modal form that called this form.
This can be done by moving the first modal form off the screen out of view and then later moving it back into view. If we stay away from the visible property things work fine.
I just feel that Microsoft made a bad assumption, by assuming that the visible property would only be set by accident. Really, the only way the visible property could be set by the user, is if the developer gave the user some way to do it. That would be stupid.
