aliases and multiple dialog instances

Hi there,



our applcation supports using multiple instances of dialogs.

I have been successfully using the alias concept before, but now I wonder, how to deal with multiple instances of a dialog opened at the same time.



My test opens a new dialog instance and maps it to the alias structure. I've incluced a 'RefreshMappingInfo' statement, and as a consequence, the alias is mapped to the current ('active') instance of the Dialog.

When I leave the Dialog open and re-run the test, a new instance is opened and used. This works fine :-)



I've got two questions:

1) how can the 'RefreshMappingInfo' statement identify the active dialog instance? There are several Dialog instances which fullfil the aliases' conditions. I would expect a result list.



2) how can I access the 'other' instances of the Dialog not being active currently?



Regards,



Manfred
