Modal forms

[Guest]

I create a form A inside an MDI evironment. From A I'd like to create a modal
form B by calling B's ShowDialog-method passing A as the owner. I'd like B to
be modal only to A so that I can get to the MDI parent and do some other
stuff.

Is this possible or does any .NET modal form/dialog box block the rest of
the system completely?

Well, as i know any modal window "blocks" all other application windows, and it's not only .NET -
that's how windows work in Windows .
