Hi Bruce 1. I'd suggest you have a startup module that you use to 'manually' open the forms. Keep track of the detail forms you've opened in a Collection or array. If you raise an event from the 'main' form when the user clicks on a detail line, you can handle it appropriately in your module... look through the list of detail forms you already have open, if it's already there, give it the focus/bring it to the top, if not then open a new detail form and store it in your collection.
I have some sample code which you could probably adapt if you need it. 2. Hmmm, maybe Benoit can help you on this one. It's not the behaviour I would expect...
