Body
In our app we have a form that can be opened up non-modally. We have another form that can be opened up modally. From the modal form you can click a button to open up the non-modal form. This works fine, you can then mess about with both the modal and non-modal form. However, if the non-modal form was opened up before the modal one, then the non-modal form can no longer be accessed until the modal form is closed. Is there anyway, short of closing and re-opening the non-modal form that I can bring the non-modal form to the front from the modal form?? Thanks

1. COif you need both windows open and accessible at the same time, modal windows are a bad choice.

2. COshort answer is no - what you are saying is "If have a system which enforces 'A'. I don't want 'A' can I still use this system but not get it."

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
