Im not sure what you mean. If you have your OWN form open, you can send commands to autocad - you just cant use the mouse to interact with the drawing.

If its someone elses modal form, then you're sunk. I just answered this same question in the Acad NG's ... was this you again?

BTW, you can't just "make a form modeless"... you create it that way, and, short of a bunch of hocus pocus, the form will stay that way.

i was talking about VBA and forms.

With vba you can hide then reshow a form to be modeless.

I was having trouble changing layouts within a drawing to retrieve attributes whilst the userform was shown (modal).

I worked it out any way - but thak you for your reply.
