The ABL Form

You use the ABL Form when you want a non-modal window for your application. Non-modal windows can be active when other windows in the application are active. The parent of an ABL Form cannot be a modal dialog, but an ABL Form can be the parent of a modal dialog.
You will implement ABL Forms in Creating the Customer Window, Creating the Department Window, and Creating the Purchase Order Window.
