About Window Types

When you create a window, you specify its type by setting the Window Style property.

There are two window styles:

Document Windows

Document windows typically display the main canvases and work areas of your application where most data entry, and data retrieval is performed.

Dialog Windows

Dialog windows are free-floating, containers typically used for modal dialogs that require immediate user interaction.
