I'm still having issues with popping up some message dialogs using ShowMessage() from a Modal Window. I mentioned this in the EWB Preview forums back in time as well.

Basically, I have a form that is called with Form.Show method. That form again can call a Form2.ShowModal as action have to be completed in Form2 before any other action can be taken. However, some times I have to show the user an error or info message in the Modal Form2. When I call ShowMessage() from the Modal Form2, the "Modal Overlay" covers the message dialog as well. I can hit Enter and the dialog closes, but I cannot click the OK button with the mouse. If I try to hit the OK button with the mouse, it renders the whole app useless. After that, hitting Enter will not close the dialog.

Anyone else experiencing this. I used the same structure in EWB1 with no issues related to this

Please send me a sample project that demonstrates this, and I'll take a look.
