You could create a Global reference variable to access the window eg. UpdateWindow &WINDOW (Reference variables can cross threads) Then on the opening of the window you want to point to assign to variable to it UpdateWindow &= FormWindow if FormWindow was the name of the window then you can access the controls on that window from anywhere by prefixing them with the reference variable and a dollar sign eg. UpdateWindow$?Closebutton{PROP:Enabled} = TRUE
