HELP! How to wait until a form is released (after a DO FORM) to run next code?

TheMSsForum.com: The Microsoft Software Forum

Hi all,

I've been banging my head over this problem for two hours by now:
I have a modeless form which called another Modal form with a click of a
button:
DO FORM form_b
Messagebox ("This should only appear AFTER form_b is released!")

Is there any way that I could force VFP not to run the messagebox BEFORE
form_b is being released? The messagebox keep on appearing on top of form_b
regardless what I do. In a desperation I tried:
- Change the value of form_b's WindowType Property from Modal to
Modeless
- Put DOEVENT [FORCE] before the 'DO FORM... ' command
- Alter AutoYield property (yes.. I know it has nothing to do with this)
- Put the form in a base class and create an instances instead of 'DO
FORM' it
- Put a bag of ice in my forehead
- Eat a Mars bar
- Drink two cup of coffee

None solve the problem! And this is my last effort: yell for a help in this
ng!

Ideas anyone???

TIA,
Willianto
