Remy,

It turned out to be incorrect behaviour - my form become embedded in the 
cleanup manager (as described in the help file).

Is there any way I can make the cleanup manager auto minimize/restore if a 
user minimizes my form ?

If not, I'll just have to remove the minimize button and be done with it.
