Topic: Little slow round here - Modeless Forms . . .

[jbuzbee]

If a modeless form is NOT active, do events still fire?  Like OnEnteringNoDocState?  They don't seem to, just askin.  Thanks.

They certainly should fire. If they don't, then something fishy is going on.

Everything is fine:  Iwas just wondering if I need to do something like;

Code: [Select]

(if (dcl_form_IsActive myForm)
*Do Something
*Do Nothing
)

But I guess if it really doesn't matter - like OnDocumentActivated I would need to re-initialize the form for local document conditions.  Guess it doesn't really matter if the form is active or not?

Ah, I misunderstood.  By "active" I thought you meant "has the input focus".  You are correct, if a form is not currently active (i.e. an instance of the form exists), none of its events will fire.

Sweet - thanks.
