Modeless screens on Windows (SOLVED!!!)

[Peter Haworth]

Hi Hugh,
OK, I see what your'e saying now.  Actually, this isn't iOS, just

I do plan on entering a QCC report on this but I have to say I'm less and
less motivated to enter QCC reports since I don't see any evidence that
anyone at RunRev ever looks at them.
