I am trying to open an "Orders" form from my "Customer" form. I have a browse object with the order numbers, so when I select one, the onclick property opens the correct order form.
The Customers form is modeless (I have the record navigation controls in the system menu bar) and the Orders form I have set as modal (no record navigation controls in the system menu.) I think I am supposed to create a session (in the header of the Orders form?) but I just can't seem to figure out how to get the orders form to open from the "onclick" property correctly, so that when I close the order form, and return to the same record in the customer form and it is modeless again. The samples database is very elaborate with an entire user menu and navigation controls in the form, but I don't need anything so elaborate. I almost have this idea working where the correct Orders form opens up modally, but when I close the orders form and return to the customer form, it is now become modal too.
