Hi!

VFP don't allow to do what you want.
You can use API functions to create your form, but better do this not in VFP. I don't know exactly if it is possible at all for custom dialog boxes. You will need to search a lot in Help on Win API to find required functions.

>I want to do something similar to the messagebox function, i.e. having a top-level form that's the only active component in my application. I don't want any menus or any forms to be activated or enabled. In fact, if the user clicks anywhere other than in the current active form, I want VFP to "beep" (thus behaving exactely like a messagebox).

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
