Can you please give my an example of the show? Where should I call the show method?


Top level forms don't respect the Modal setting of forms. To make a top level form modal, you need to call its SHOW(1) (Note that you must pass 1 as a parameter.)

>I wrote a program and converted it to an .exe. Everything runs beautifully in the foxpro window, but when I run it outside of the fox window (_Screen.visible = .F.) as an .exe I have a problem. I am calling a Modal form with the showwindow at 1 and Desktop = T and when I call it the calling program continues on, without waiting for the varible to be passed back from the Modal form.
