Hi,

I am a long time programmer. I just haven't done Windows API programming in about 17 or 18 years. I have been a PowerBuilder/VB/C# programmer since the old days.

Is it possible that someone demonstrate how to open one form (with a callback) from a "main" form (preferably in FireFly)? All the examples seem to entail just one form.

Thanks,

Frank

btw - I'm basically trying to re-create the PowerBasic EchoServer example in FireFly. I want a main form with a menu option to start the TCPIP server.

Hi Frank,

There is a help file topic called "Multi-Form Project" located under the "User Reference Guide" section. It talks about how to display and subsequently close the popup forms that you spawn from the main form. Hopefully that topic describes the process okay.
