Larry, this works for forms, but... and I guess this a new concern. This does not work all that well for form classes
I dont know, but I found a way to get form classes work modeless. by creating a public var and then when I issue a omyform=create("myform") type command if the omyform var is made public, it does not clear just after it loads.

the reason I am writing, is that I dont know for sure if this is a good way of handling classforms... by creating public vars... it works, but something is telling me that is not, really a good solution.

Do you have any thoughts ?
