i have form2 that shows on top of form1. if my user clicks the "ok" button in form2, i want form1 and form2 to be released and show form3.

i have this,

thisform.release
_screen.activeform.release
if _screen.activeform.caption="form1"
    messagebox ("form1")
endif
if _screen.activeform.caption="form2"
    messagebox ("form2")
endif
do form form3

thisform.release is supposed to release form2 and _screen.activeform.release is supposed to release form1. the code that follows is only to check what form is still active.

why am i getting the messagebox form2 instead of do form form3?
