I'm working in VB3 (I know!) but I think this applies to other versions of VB as well...

I have an MDI form which sometimes pops up modal non-MDI forms. When this happens, if the user gives focus to another application and then clicks on the icon of the MDI form, no action is permitted on the MDI form since another modal form is currently open.

What I need to know is how I can code/configure the program such that if the MDI form is selected from the taskbar when a modal form is opened, that the modal form is brought into focus on top of the MDI form.

This is donde in programs such as Word 97.

Thank you,
Craig Steiner
