Hi Macer,

I've tested your code and what I see is, that as soon as the modal "in top level" is displayed, most actions are blocked in VFP's main window, regardless whether the browser window is diplayed or not. At least the menu and toolbars are deactivated. Seems as if the modal form is modal to VFP and not to it's visual parent window ... I tried setting MDIChild=.T. and Desktop = .t., but both didn't help in any way. Sorry, I can't think of anything more, but I thought I'll let you know what I experienced.

Regards,
Armin

However, if the line 'DO (_browser)' is uncommented and run again, it is no longer possible to switch between the main app window and back again. Is there any way to have a modal window in my top level form... that isn't modal.
