A form always above the parent form?

Cat
It's easy to make a form "Always on top". Just use .TopMost.
But I want to make the child form is on top of only its parent window,
not other application's window. Like the toolbar of Photoshop.
How can I do this? Thanks.

Just show the child Form using ShowDialog() instead of Show()
