Andrus,
This is standard behavior for modal forms. Users are required to leave the modal form before they are able to select another form from a toolbar, menu or previously opened form.
If you want to have menu items available you will not be able to use modal forms or will need to put these choices onto the modal form as a popup menu from a button or other control.
