From what I understand you have two forms : a mainForm, and a "dropDownForm". When you press the drop down button you wish to show the dropDownForm but keep focus on the mainForm. If you do that the dropDownForm will not be visible (only if you make it allways on top, whitch is not a good thing, let's say you switch to an other aplication...in this case you will see the dropDownForm). I recommend you to forward all the focus actions you wish to keep onto the mainForm from the dropDownForm. I hope you understand...because is a rough world out there...
