Re: Multiple Forms Application

[Quoted] Thanks Boris.

I still have some questions abot the initial form. Meanwhile I read an article about this subject, and they recommend that the [Quoted] main form has 1 window, 1 canvas and the menu application linked to it, but no blocks or items on it.
[Quoted] And from this menu making calls to the other forms (with open_form(...) / call_form(...) / new_form(...))

My problem is that when making this form like that and running it it will not persist more then a second. What's the problem?

Furthermore as far as I remember a form will run inside the window of the Forms Runtime, unless using the USESDI=yes parameter. Which window will be the main window of the application?

Thanks for the time.
