Hi! Thanx but the problem which I should have stated first is that I call
each windows like this:

Dim oForm As form_datas
Set oForm = New form_datas
Call oForm.Show
Set oForm = Nothing

so all forms are dynamic each time the user presses a button on one of these
form then there is a new form openning but it should stay behind. the
problem is that I dont konw the name of that form because they all have the
same names.

Thank you for your help.

the simplest might be to use the ZOrder:
Form2.Show
Form2.ZOrder 1

Another way of looking at it, is making your original Form stay on top
of any new forms.

BringWindowToTop looks a likely candidate

You can still use me.setfocus on the form showing the other forms.

Dim oForm As form_datas
Set oForm = New form_datas
Call oForm.Show
Me.SetFocus
Set oForm = Nothing
