Hi Christian,
Ditto Larry's comments.
I use a form handler to launch nonmodal forms. Here's the way I have it setup.
An app object has a reference, ThisApp. It has a method Launch. This enables toolbars and menu hits that launch a form to do simple ThisApp.Launch("MyForm") or ThisApp.Launch("MyClass", "MyClassLib", "ParameterList")
The App object passes the request on to the formhandler since it's job is to know how to launch forms and keep track of them.
ThisApp.Launch(FormName, FormFile, ParaList)
This.FormHandler.Do(m.FormName, m.FormFile, m.ParaList)
