Can this be used so that a form from my VB app can be associated with another application. I can't seem to find out how to use this parameter, apart from omitting it altogether, or setting it to "Me". The problem I have is that I'm showing a form from my app to control a Word session, set to Always On Top. When I click this form, all other forms in my application become visible, with Word going into the background. If there is any way I can use the ownerform parameter to associate it with the Word application, then this would not happen. Any ideas ?????

Theres a parameter in a form's .Show method for ownerform. In VB's help it is described as "Optional. A string expression that specifies the component which "owns" the form being shown. For standard Visual Basic forms, use the keyword Me"
I was wondering if this could be used to specify another application to "own" the form, as if you click on a modal form, the application that owns it is brought from the background to the foreground. I want word to "Own" the form, so that if my form is clicked on, Word stays in the foreground, and my app stays in the background.
