I think the key you hit upon is the word "dialog". It is possible that the Open Window action on the active link is set to something other than "Dialog" and has a Target Location of "New", in which case it just opens a new window with both remaining editable.

If a new window is opened as a dialog, the parent Mid-Tier window cannot be accessed until the dialog window has been closed. Do you see different behavior?

Now my concern is that the user can still access the parent form (window) and do changes when actually the user is suppose to be working on the dialog opened. Is there anyway this can be restricted i.e. the user can only work on the currently open dialog and not on the parent window. I have field mappings for the OnOpen and OnClose of the dialog also. Any help on this regards is highly appreciated. ARS 7.0.1 Patch 003 Thanks and regards, Anesh A Kurian P Please do not print this email unless it is absolutely necessary.
