Vladimir - What I've done in a similar situation is to set the Enabled property of all forms, except the one I want the user to use, to .F. Also, set the AlwaysOnTop property of the form you want the user to use to .T. This will simulate a modal form, but it should allow the toolbar to remain active. So, in the Init() or Activate() event of the form you use to view the lookup table, in your case, set the Enabled property of all other forms to .F. Then in the Destroy() event of the same form, set the Enabled property of all other forms back to .T. HTH.
