Hi,

Thank for your advise, but I think I should had posted my question
in VB forum as I am refering to my VB6 written application, not VFP6
written application. Anyway, is there similar way to do it in VB6 ?

When creating, you will require to ahow it at least once at startup to force automatic activation by VFP and avoid firther activations of it when you use it later in application with modal foirms opened. Then just show or hide it using its "Visible" property. Make it "Always On Top", so it will be visible for user despite it will not be ever active because modal forms.

>>>Thanks for that information. I think I finally get it. Talk about confusing. And today I had another pair of eyes look at my code and tell me more or less the same thing. I was told, "Don't do a DO FORM inside of a modal form." We moved my DO FORM command into my PRG that runs my forms and that was that.
