Form methods

Method	Definition	Syntax	Example
DisableFormEvents	Disables the following form events: � Click � DoubleClick � Activate � Deactivate and the following field events: � Click (except buttons) � DoubleClick � GotFocus � LostFocus. This form method is useful for applications running on high usage systems. If the events listed are not used in the application, disabling these form events can reduce client-server overhead.	formname.DisableFormEvents
EnableFormEvents	Enables form and field events disabled with the DisableFormEvents form method.	formname.EnableFormEvents
Hide	Hides a form from view. A hidden form is not unloaded; the form continues to exist with current attributes and values intact. Showing a hidden form will redisplay the form with all attributes set as they were prior to running the Hide form method. If the application ends, a hidden form is automatically unloaded.	formname.Hide
Show	Displays a modeless form. If the form has not been loaded, Show will load the form and data environment before displaying.	formname.Show
Swap	Hides a form's content and display a second form within the form's original window.	formname.Swap(swapform) The swapform argument can be any string expression that is a valid form name. This method allows the programmer to dramatically change the interface in the window without hiding and unhiding fields. Be sure to put the swapform argument as a string and not a direct reference to the form object. If the swapform argument is a direct reference to the form object, the form's default attribute, Title, will be used as the swap form name.	Form1.Swap("Form2) 'Correct! Form1.Swap(Form2) 'Incorrect! Passes Form2's title as an argument.
