That would be unique to Access, then. The rest of the Office fleet stops
processing depending on the modality of the form. If the form is modeless,
the form can display with the work continuing in the background (makes a
nice way to display progress, too). But if a form is modal, all processing
stops until the user clicks a button containing a Me.Hide instruction.
The modal option is also new to the Office core applications as of Office
2000. Prior to that, there was no way to set a form's mode and all were
modal (processing stopped).
Thanks for the info on that one!
