>In some instances, I need to hide my form before it displays, call a child form, then make the parent form visible again. In the init method of my parent form, I have THISFORM.hide, and it does indeeed hide the form, but I get an error message that says "property hide is read-only". This seems interesting because why would it hide the form it it if really read-only? Using VFP 6 Sp5.

Try this instead:
DO form test NAME loTest noshow
*!* do other stuff here
loTest.Show()
if it needs to be shown as modal:
loTest.Show(1)
if it needs to be shown non-modal:
loTest.Show(0)
