Hi all,

I am doing some macro using VBA.
When I try to have a non modal userform and run the macro from VBA it s fine but when I use it directly under CATIA, I dont see it.. (if modal everything fine)

I use : UserForm1.Show

I use CATIA V5R9SP3

Have fun,

Eric

Hi
The difference between a modal & modeless form is a modal form prevents further program execution untill the form has been dismissed.
With this in mind I suspect when you use a modeless form the form is shown but instantly buried by further execution of the program. When you use a modal form the program is halted leaving the form on top untill you have dismissed it.

Hope this helps

Pete
