>>>>Something weird is happening when I am calling a form from another form. When called with DO FORM myFormName from a button's click event on the calling form it goes to the load event of the called form...everything cool so far, then the weirdness happens. Instead of going to init() it goes right to unload() event, closes and returns to the calling form bypassing everything. This called form does indeed load from other areas of my application, even when called from other forms, but when being called from this particular form it is not loading, just fires the load event (which has nothing in it) and then it goes to the unload event and skips init() activate() etc. and then closes. whatup? anybody have any ideas?

Is this form modal or non-modal? How do you invoke it? Could you please show a code snippet? I had similar strange problem before, when non-modal forms call non-modal forms and after do form there were some other lines of code...
