Pausing processing like a regular desktop app on showmodal form

[Tinygoldwing]

I'm trying to figure out the best method to handle continuing process once a showmodal form is closed.  Much like what a normal desktop app would do.  I was thinking about:

1.  In MainForm click on button to open second form:

procedure TfrmTransport.UniButton3Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  frmTransport.showmodal;
  ShowMessage('Done');
end;

 I understand  showmodal is different.  Another way I was thinking:

1. Set a string on what window I just opening.
2. Putting code in the MainForm.OnActive so when the mainform becomes active after second form is closed that would say that would allow me to process code after the form is closed.
3. Clearing the string.

Seems like this method is a hack though.  I must be missing something.

Thanks for the help.

What's the problem?

Thanks I figured it out.  Had to set EnableSynchronousOperations := True;

This code snippet demonstrates pausing processing, emulating the behavior of a regular desktop application, by displaying a modal form, which temporarily suspends user interaction until the form is closed.
