>>I'm trying to use DO FORM formB NAME LINKED, but it's not working right. When I try to launch formB from formA, it just flashes, like there's no READ EVENTS. I have .show, .alwaysontop, but it doesn't help.

>Had the same problem myself. When you DO FORM from a method in a parent form, the NAME you specify is released when the method is finished executing. The only way to prevent this is to declare the NAME public so it does not lose scope. It also works better if the NAME you specify is different than the actual name you specify in the child form's Name property.

Oh, I get it now, that's what Edward/Philip were saying...but what's the point of using LINKED if I have to declare a public var, since it works fine without LINKED too? (I'm not grumbling at you, Mark, just in general) :)
