No not quite. I have a form (Settings) defined as 'In Top level Form' which is in (Main) defined as 'Top Level Form' and not 'In Screen'

I am issuing WAIT WINDOW from 'Settings' form. It works fine in another app I have which uses the same classes. The only difference is I can minimise this one down to the system tray.

Geoff Scott
