ShowDialog() problems

[Guest]

In efforts to upgrade dev environment to VS.Net 2003 w/FW 1.1, I have done
the following:

On a new computer (leaving old environment alone):

-Installed the SourceSafe Client (with NetSetup)
-Set a label across all objects in the archive marking where dev environment
is being upgraged
-Installed VS.Net 2003 to include Pre-reqs, IDE, MSDN library.
-installed VS.Net 2003 hotfix (836454) fo "updates" can be retrieved from
the web
- using VSS, retrieved latest version of all files to working folder
- opened main solution

Upon opening the solution, VS.Net 2003 had to convert all projects, it was
done without errors being reported...

-Installed ODBC.Net Managed provider (for compiling)
-Installed previously used 3rdParty component for compiling (DevPower
Solutions FTP for .Net)

-Compile without error

On run, both from the IDE (debug), and from outside the IDE (debug and
release) my ShowDialog() for the usr/pwd prompting seems to be MODELESS ???

App does the following:

-Main entry point calls App.Run(new MainForm())
-MainFrom gets created
-MainForm_Load() event handler creates a new LoginForm(), and does a
form.ShowDialog() ...note, LoginForm:BaseForm,
BaseForm:Windows.System.Forms.Form)

At this point, I see a "flicker" for the login form, but does not hold up
waiting for me to enter data/press OK button, etc... The LoginForm_Load()
handler sets the DialogResult to CANCEL, so the switch/case processing the
DialogResult after the call to ShowDialog() promptly ends.


I have a call to tech support on this....pending resolution...anyone have
thoughts on this????

Thanks in advance.

Set DialogResult = DialogResult.None in LoginForm_Load.
