[QUOTE="OrionHall, post: 297148, member: 56502"] How weird?! Never seen that before! I honestly have no idea what could cause that. I've run the app in the debugger, from a folder any old where, and from it's 'official' location in Program Files. Apart from running over the network (which is blocked by .net security) it should work no matter where you run it. Well those are definitely MP folders, and AMCUpdater does use a MP .dll for the Internet grabber. I guess that .dll is the only suspect - I'll ask the author of the grabber for advice. I've always fought with that log window! I think I've finally cracked it though. I've used form.AddOwnedForm now and that seems to hold the two together and works for alt-tab and clicking the Taskbar icon. The lookup dialog however can't be modal. In a way it already is, it's shown with '.showdialog' which makes it modal. Unfortunately it's launched from a background thread, so can't be fully linked to the main form which is on a separate thread. If you know any way to do that then let me know, but as far as I can see it can't be done. Cheers, Orion. [/QUOTE]
