Oops, stupid of me. I believe this is the exact way how I solved this problem in the past. The form should be set modal in designer and could be changed on the fly. I read Nick's FAQ, because I remembered, that there was some problem here.
But it applies to form based on class, scx based forms work just fine with the technique you described.

Thanks. Next time I would think a little bit longer before posting a message :)
