[RESOLVED] I am working with...

[ThEiMp]

I am working with several Forms that are able to be on the screen at a time. But only one of them will be .SetFocus, all the time. When one of them looses Focus, then it will be .Zorder "1", instead of staying on the screen and being inactive.

How can I get the Forms, to be inactive when not in use, but stay on the screen for when they are called to be working on the screen. I am trying to click a button on the Master Form (Form1), and Form2, is called before hand. Then I have to click onto the Form2, from Form1. Then a process will happen, when that has happened.

I cannot get past this. I am trying to work with this code:

Form2.LostFocus = Form1.SetFocus
Form1.LostFocus = Form2.SetFocus

Is this the correct way of working out the problem, or is there something that I am missing, here??? Please tell me, where I am going wrong!!

I am now working with this code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
If Form1.hWnd Then Form2.ZOrder "0"

Exit Sub
End Sub

Not quite sure what you are trying to communicate but it sounds like you want to keep one form above another but still be able to interact with form behind. If this is the case then start a new standard exe project, add a form, and try this...

Option Explicit

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.WindowState = vbMaximized
Form2.Show vbModeless, Me
End Sub

This will keep Form2 above form1 and you will still be able to interact with form1.



Good Luck
