Subject Re: modal form From Andy Taylor <andy.taylor.1959@outlook.com> Date Tue, 18 Aug 2020 18:38:09 -0400 Newsgroups dbase.getting-started Gaetano, No, there isn't, not explicitly. However, you've done the right thing by setting your own custom flag in the code below via "intCheck.modal=true" The best place for this would be by overwriting the standard readModal method as follows: Within your form constructor code, or as "always there" code in your base form class: function readModal    this.modal = true    // set your modal flag    super::readModal() // calls the normal dBASE readModal method    return and for completeness.... function open    this.modal = false  // set your modal flag    super::open()        // calls the normal dBASE open method    return That way you've just rolled your own permanent flag for this.
