Have you tried doing a mainform->restore() (or whatever the Delphi version is)
before closing the child? It is likely the user won't mind the window
re-appearing when some long processing is finished. If you're worried about
that, you could possibly do
mainform->restore()
cancelform->close()
mainform->minimize()
