Opening another form from a popup form.

I have a situation where I have a popup form that is opened and I want to be
able to have the user open another form from the popup. I need to use a popup
because I need execution to stop in the subroutine that opens the popup until
it is closed and then pick up again after the popup closes. the popup opens
the form, but it ends up behind the popup and can't be accessed. The popup
has to stay open until the form it opens is closed. Is there a way to get
this to work, or is it just the nature of popups that they can't open other
forms like this? Any help is appreciated.

Figured it out - the form that is opened by the popup must also be a popup.
This was an existing form I already had that was set to modal. When the popup
opened it, the popup still sayed 'on top of' it. Changing it to popup did the
trick.
