    Can a form run in the background?


    Sorry guys this may sound silly,

    I have FORM A which some values are only available if form B is open, although i have a macro that opens the FORM B when FORM A enters a new value and i can see the values i want, however i was wondering if it is possible not to see FORM B in-front of FORM A when the macro is running.

    Thanks in advance
