>My application has two dataentry forms. The second form is a multi tabbed pageform. Both have a command button 'find' which brings up a seperate form where the user enters a number, presses ok and then is returned to the original form, which displays record selected by the find function.

>This works fine in the first, simple case. You press 'find' the find form appears, you enter the number and then press ok which release the form, and the original form appears refreshed with the selected record.

>The problem is with the second form, which has a identical command button 'find' and is intended to operate the same manner. The difficulty is that the find form appears behind the form, thus halting the entire operation and untile you clear the form with the pageframe, you cannot see the find form. The only way I have been able to show the find form is to hide the pageframe form. This of course is not acceptable.

There are several ways. The basic one is to use Form.ZOrder method. Also, if you are concerned to bring form on top then Form.Show should work Ok (if you don't have another form with AlwaysOnTop=.T.).
