Neither Hide or passing null changes anything. The result is -7.

Maybe I rephrase my wish to be more precise -- when I call modal 
dialog I would like the events in main dialog won't be run in 
parallel. Because some events in main dialog cause the modal dialog 
to show up, and if they are run in parallel I end up with several 
error dialog boxes informing user that (for example) loading of data 
were not successful.

Cheers,
