Hate to say it, but it sounds like a bad design to me. The contents of a non-modal window and a dialog are usually different. i.e., A dialog should have an obvious way to close it other than hitting the X on the window header, like an OK or Close button. Non-modal windows normally use a different style. Having said that, yes, in classic ABL GUI you need two different frames, but you can have an include file for the guts of the frame definition so you can reuse it if that's what you really want. The only thing different is the VIEW-AS DIALOG-BOX phrase. But also, for a dialog you would want a new WAIT-FOR and for a non-modal window you should NOT have a new WAIT-FOR. So again, you would need to parameterize the code to accomplish this or use different code.
