Hey Stuart I am not telling you anything you don't already know. We are talking the same logic. Very simple concept. But no hiddened forms.etc. Just based on the Unload event and what forms are loaded. As I said no rocket science, but the beauty is the user cannot close the application, other then returning to the Main Menu.. Which is cooly, cooly and exactly what I wanted. Modal forms (which was my main point) were the problem, cause it conflicted with the UnLoad event of the parent form and caused a major lock up/crash on the sub/popup form. And that is why if you call a second form to pop up you have to delare modal = false for the parent form and then on close set modal for the parent form = true.
