i'm not really sure what you're trying to do, but you could set a timer,
(timer control) so that every 5 seconds, it will show another form (form2)
using form2.show, and show that form as modal (which will keep it on top)
then you'd have to have a timer on the second form to tell it when to hide
itself using form2.hide

lemme know if that helps or not, i'm kind of in a hurry right now, i have to
leave for ohio for the weekend, i can be of more help monday
