What do you say? :D

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  ShowWindow(Form2.Handle, SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE);
  Form2.Visible := True;
end;

You can show the window (non modal) and reset the focus to the mainwindow. 

procedure TMainForm.ButtonClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
  OtherForm.Show;
  SetFocus;
end;

This does not show the other form on top. But it is very counter intuitive to have a window on top that does not have the focus. :)
I hope these helps...
