How to keep one form in front of other form

[MDA]

Hi all,

I have a main form with a treeview control and a second form that is shown at the user request, it also contains a treeview control.

The user can drag nodes from the the "pop-up" (second) form onto the main forms tree. With both forms open, I want to make sure the "pop-up" (Second) form is not hidden if the user clicks on the main form.

Any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks,
MDA

Have you tried setting the TopMost property of your second form to true?

You could use owned form for the second form like:

Dim frm As New SecondForm
frm.Owner = Me
frm.Show()

if Owner is closed or minimized, SecondForm is also closed or minimized. Owned forms are also never displayed behind their owner form
