Hi, I have: - normal form: ‘FormA\_normal’ - form in dialog: ‘FormB\_in\_dialog’ - form for preview :’ FormC\_for\_preview’ - and the preview of this form : 'Preview\_of\_form’C When I show a preview with showPrintPreview method from ‘FormA\_normal’ it works fine. When I show the preview ‘Preview\_of\_formC’ from ‘FormB\_in\_dialog’, the preview is correctly show in dialog, but when I close it, the form in dialog load ‘FormC\_for\_preview’ (not the last form use ‘FormB\_in\_dialog’) and the ‘FormA\_normal’ in background change for ‘FormB\_in\_dialog’. I hope it’s clear ![:)]( "Smile") , Thanks ---

So, basically this tells you it works. > When I show the preview ‘Preview\_of\_formC’ from ‘FormB\_in\_dialog’, the preview is correctly show in dialog, but when I close it, the form in dialog load ‘FormC\_for\_preview’ (not the last form use ‘FormB\_in\_dialog’) and the ‘FormA\_normal’ in background change for ‘FormB\_in\_dialog’. Does your formb or formc have an onShow method attached that make it perform differently? When you go back from a formindialog the form in the main frame will ‘show’ again so the onShow is triggered again… ---

You protected your solution ![:?]( "Confused") Little hard to debug this way. Anyway when you are really sure you did nothing wrong you should add it to the Support System along with your (unprotected!) solution… ---

![:?:]( "Question") No, I didn’t protect it, I tried to import it and no password is required. No password is required to change in designer mode too. ---
