No problemo...we all have to start somewhere.
First, IMHO if you have a second form called from a prior form (as in this case
) you should make the second one modal. This is because you are doing something that interrupts the first form, and the user should deal with that immediately and get it out of the way. Again, that is only my opinion.
So, make the second form modal (myform.show(1) ), and remove the READ EVENTS in the first form. You should only have one READ EVENTS firing at any given time.
Hope that helps.
