    Question Forms stuck to application...

    I need some help on a special problem I've got.

    I created a software which let's poeple log calls in a database. Each Log window is opened as a new form object in the main application's form. Now here is the problem I have:

    It happens that I log more than one call at once and my main application's form is to search for clients in our database. Now if I need to work in another application, as it happens many times, when I choose my Log in the task bar to finish it and close it, absolutely all visible windows of my application appear on top of all the windows.

    How can I show a form without bringing all the visible windows of my application in foreground.

    My fast solution is organising my logs in a single window under tabs but this solution was rejected by all users. And before anyone asks, NO, my forms are not shown modally! All forms are modaless.

    NOTE: the form chosen in the task bar stays on top of all the others as asked by the user, the problem is that behind it all visible forms of the application are visible which is not what I asked for.

    Here is an example in image of what I want.
