Hey Jeff,

This really sounds like an architectural conundrum. Don't tell me you really want the user forced into a single form, with no access to the system menu when that form is displayed?

If that is what you really want, either make the form windowtype modal -or- SET SYSMENU OFF in the Init of the Form and SET SYSMENU ON in the QueryUnload of the Form.
