Julie,
Did you try Marcia's suggestion ? I'd suggest same. ie: Add a custom property ShowOnRelease to formB :

*FormB.load
IF TYPE( '_Screen.ActiveForm' ) = 'O' AND !isnull( _Screen.ActiveForm )
  this.ShowOnRelease = _Screen.ActiveForm
  _Screen.ActiveForm.Hide()
ENDIF

*FormB.unload
IF TYPE( 'this.ShowOnRelease' ) = 'O' AND ;
  !isnull(this.ShowOnRelease) and ;
  lower(this.ShowOnRelease.Baseclass) = 'form'
   this.ShowOnRelease.Show()
ENDIF
