Eugene,

What you want to do is get the April/May 1988 issue of MacTutor
magazine (if you can't find the actual issue, you can buy Volume 4 of
the book that they sell which contains all the articles for a given
year)

I recently asked MACDTS pretty much the same question, and that was
their answer to me.  The article has a sample application and WDEF
(and an MDEF that lets you tear off menus a la HyperCard) and explains
in depth how to manage floating windows.

If you don't want to type in the code, you can either buy a source
disk or let me know - I typed in the WDEF, but not the sample code
since I'm using MacApp.
