Open a form in front of a pop-up form.

Hi all,

I have been trying to figure out how to get a form to open in front of a pop-up form. I know how to set the visible property command to close the pop-up menu, but I am unable to open a form in front of another form.

roaml,

Have you tried setting the forms properties to popup as well?

Well a popup is suppose to stay above what ever else your trying to do. Thats its purpose. Maybe you should change that form to a modul = yes and pop up = no. Modul will not let you select forms under it but will allow you to open forms above and not have the annoying popup effect.

hello,

Well, I have tried all suggestions and for the most part, the modal and pop-up suggestions work. However, the pop-up form remains on top of the reports and I don’t know how to open a report in front of the pop-up form.

roaml,

Access XP (2002) allows you to set reports to pop up. I have done it in some of my applications and it works fine. All other versions of Access do not offer this facility for reports.
