Hi Simon,

Thanks, but I think, it's the same as _screen.ActiveForm. I found, what was the problem. Before invoking my other form I did:

thisform.visible = .f.
do form ....
thisform.visible = .t.

So the calling form becomes inactive. So, I just passed its name as a parameter. I had to change couple of forms to accomodate this change. Clearly, using Roi's idea this process would be much simpler...

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
