   That would be good if you are starting out and always call the stub form. If   
   you have an application that is already in use, you may not remember where   
   all the calling locations are to change to call the stub form. Also the user   
   may already be opening the form by name and he/she would need to change the   
   opening process. I think Robert has a solution that he can now put into any   
   form that he wants to open or bring to the top.   
      
   Just my 2cents.
