The goapp object will be created after it's Init method is finished. You can use THIS to reference goapp object inside it's methods.

If I open a form from within the init method of the main class I get an error: 'goapp(the main class) is not an object' I think this means that the code in the init event to check if goapp.totalForms > 0 is not working in this scenario.
