Hi!

It is hard to understand what you want really to do, BUT, in fact:

Top-level form cannot be modal at all. As a result, any command that show a top-level form will not stop execution at that moment no matter what you do - program will continue running after you show that form or use "DO FORM" command. To organize calling of the top-level form from another VFP form, you require just open it or show and do nothing else in the rest of the code after that. The code that does something AFTER top-level form opening should be in another place. For example, in the Unload method of that top-level form. In some event of the main form that checks if top-level form is still opened.

You can also simulate the modality of the top-level form by activating that top-level form by timer. In the timer event, that fire each 0.01 second, check if another form or main screen is active. If yes - force activate required top-level form. For user it will look like if user clicks on the main VFP screen, it is activated, but after that top-level form is activated again immediately. To check if some window is active and activate a top-level form, you probably will require to use Windows API functions to work with windows on the level of Operation System (Windows).

HTH.
