Arranging forms and reports

[galar]

I have a form (an Order document). I have a button named Client's documents which opens another form (a list of client documents) as Dialog window (I have my reasons to do this). When I try to open another form from this one - there's no problem. But, when I try to open Report in Preview - I can't get him to stay above the form - it always disappears under the other forms. I know, that if I wouldn't open a form as a Dialog, I wouldn't have this problem. But, no can do. I want to benefit from both options.
Any clues what can I do about it - how can I make the report to appear above the Dialog form?

Thanks in advance.

Try setting the modal property of the form to false before you open the report and then set it to true on the report's on close event. I had some success when I played with this some time ago. This seemed to work in Access 97. Milage may vary in other versions.

Ok, thanks. I'll try this. I'll let you know whether it worked.
