Default question about closing a modal form using code

I am trying to make my "Please Wait" form ontop of all other forms, the only way i could get this to work right now was using frmWait.show vbmodal. but when i do that, i cant tell my code to unload it using Unload frmWait when reading from a text file has finished. So the code finishes, but the "Please Wait" message still shows. Is there any way to close this modal form using code or is there another way to make this form always ontop until it is unloaded?
