The Trouble w/Windows...

.and I don't mean MS Windows.

I've got a Main screen/Form. And, I have that Form calling another Form -

which I want to pop-up to display info. But, I want to control the placement

of that 2nd Form - so it appears near the bottom of the 1st Form.

1st problem is - I set the 2nd Form to "In Top-Level Form" - and I also set

it to Modal. I even set it to "Always on Top". But, although it Does appear

on the top of the main Form - if I move it over - it doesn't stay WITHIN the

Top level Form!

I find this strange - since, I know some point in the past I WAS able to get

something like this working before.

Now - this may also be related to the 1st problem. I want to control the

placement of this 2nd Form - and I'm trying to use the function WParent() to

return the name of the main Form - but, when I do that from within this 2nd

Form and its running - it returns an Empty value.

This should be simple stuff - but, seems I am coming up blank.

TIA,

-K-
