Dear All,

I have developed menu module program in Forms 6i. I am using the syntax to call the form as
"CALL_FORM (formname,HIDE,NO_REPLACE,NO_QUERY_ONLY);"

Now the problem is :

1) Use can keep on open the same form again and again. How can we avoid this. What is the syntax to check the existing form already open or not.

2) When we click the menu, it is not displaying the form immeditately like VB forms. User don't prefer this. It should just display when we click it. (Note: I am using latest config pc).


Any clues please?

Ilango
