When I do a macro for a double click on a text box to open a Form B, the form
B opens behind form A. How do I get form B to open ontop of form A?
 
Set the forms Popup property to Yes.

Check the PopUp Property of the first form mybe it set to Yes, so every thing
that
you open will apear behind it.

You can set it to No, and then the second form will be on top of the first
form
 
Thank you it works fine but the only problem is that I also need Form A to be
available. If I change the PopUp to no on Form A it will not work propperly.
I just need form B to come ontop of form A then when I click the close button
it closes. For some reason you cant have form A and B set to yes. It soes not
function the way it should.
 
If you set form A popuop to no it does not work the same way as all the other
forms. I am not using tab style forms. I am using the old fashion way of
Access. Click a button and up comes a form,,etc

Popup objects are on top of all other objects except for other popup objects
that are opened afterwards. So if A is a popup AND B is a popup then B
should be on top of A. If A is a popup then there is no way to make B
appear on top of A except to also make B a popup.
 
Sorry Rick, but I have a popup Form A and am able to open a popup form B in
front of it. I can also select either form and it will take the focus and be
in front of the other (Access 2003.) I don't understand why your forms
aren't "behaving."
