My .mde file sends the form to back whenever a message box is displayed how
can I stop this? I'm currently on XP and using MS Access 2002.

Msg boxes are modal, or system modal, and as such will always maintain focus
until closed. You can replace them with an Access form which works like a
msg box and set the attributes you want. For a sample, see this demo
database on my website:
