Chris,
I had a few minutes to play with it. I'm not quite sure what is going on, it may have something to do with MDI forms ( I've never used them, no experience there ), or there may be something else waiting to run. Anyway, in the form manager, in the mLaunchForm procedure:

* check value of lnFormFound
if this.lnFormFound

* form was found so zoom - show - refresh

**********
**********RIGHT HERE ADD
WAIT WINDOW "" TIMEOUT .5
**********
**********
 
zoom window ( this.aForms[lnLoop].name ) norm

It is a very kludgy fix, but it is all I have right now. It at least makes it work as expected. I will look again when more time is available, or maybe someone else may have a clue here from this. Wish I had more for you right now, sorry man.
