Hello,

        I have a problem with the Show method for forms.
I want to type the following line:

                Document.Show;

        The procedure should then halt at that point until
the document I am displaying is closed. The Execute method
for dialog components seems to have this effect, so is the
solution to write a new component?

All help very much appreciated,

        Blake

Form1.ShowModal;

I believe that if you use
Document.ShowModal; this will solve the problem.
