Jean-Rene,

thank you for reply.

Unfotunately, this does not help:

1. REPORT FORM command still restores my minimized application and brings
it to front.

2. Error in report causes application to stop respondig:
Lockwindowupdate() block also error message dialog. Only ctrl+alt+del and end task helps.

How to solve those problems ?
