Bring a form to the foreground 1

I have a DB where, upon loading or changing of Form1, an expression is evaluated. If this expression is proved true, then a message form (Form2) is opened.

Form2 is Modal, and the user can only continue by pressing the OK button (which closes Form2).

Unfortunately, whenever Form2 is opened, it is always in the background, even though it is the active form. The user has to manually select Form2 from the Window toolbar to bring it to the foreground before they can continue.

Any ideas how you bring Form2 infront of Form1 when it is loaded?
 
set the PopUp property of the form to true...will always be on top...
