Hey

Im trying to make the typical options box where you cant click the parent (so to speak) box, you can only access the options window unti you close it. For a example of what I mean, in IE, click on Tools and Internet Options. That dialog box is the way I want it to act.

Thank you

Sounds like you need a modal dialogue box. When you are displaying the form, instead of calling Show(), use ShowDialogue(). This will block the calling forms UI until the form completes. It will also return an enumerated DialogResult that you can check (but also need to set). You can use this result to easily determine if the dialog was cancelled, OKed, etc.

Happy coding!
