Dialog Box Closes

[Guest]

I have a simple form where the user enters a name and two dates. A small
report comes to screen. When the user closes the report, the dialogue box
also closes. How can I keep the dialogue box open until the user exits using
the "X" in the upper right-hand corner?

Thank you!

Are you sure that the dialog box is closing and not just hiding? Click on
the Window menu and see if it is listed or the "unhide" menu item is active.

If it truly does close, there is code in the report closing it. Locate that
code in the report and comment out the line that closes the dialog form. If
there's no code there, it must be in the button that opens the report.
