And, er, um... did you find that someone had torn out the pages for Switch and Select from your help manual?

Reread it and go to bed to sleep.

Come back when you are fresh and have put in some effort in trying things yourself.

well this here is a very sloppy looking but working version of what you were asking for, commented to keep it simple and so you know what all is going on

#include <guiconstants.au3>
#include <windowsconstants.au3>
$main = guicreate("Main Gui",400,350); create the main gui
$menu1 = GUICtrlCreateMenu("Main Menu"); create the menu section
$about = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("About",$menu1); menu item1
$exitt = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("Exit",$menu1); menu item 2
$sub = GUICreate("Sub Gui",285,170,"","","","",$main); create the sub gui
GUICtrlCreateLabel("This is some text", 32, 16, 82, 17); add some text to the sub
$Butt = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button1", 72, 96, 145, 33); and a button to close it
GUISetState(@sw_hide,$sub); make sure the sub is hidden
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW,$main); show the main gui
while 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $msg
        case $gui_event_close
            Exit
        case $exitt; make the exit menu item function correctly
            Exit
        case $about; when the user clicks on the about menu item
            $zz = WinGetPos($main); get the position of the main gui's, gui
            WinMove($sub,"",$zz[0]+50,$zz[1]+100); move the sub so that it is 50 + x and 100 + y of the main gui
            guisetstate(@sw_disable,$main); disable the main gui, which gives focus to the sub
            guisetstate(@sw_show,$sub); show the sub
        case $butt; action that occures when you click the button on the sub gui
            guisetstate(@SW_ENABLE,$main); re-enable the main gui, must be before the below code or else the whole program will minimize :P
            guisetstate(@SW_HIDE,$sub); hide the sub
    EndSwitch
WEnd

also replace:

$sub = GUICreate("Sub Gui",285,170,"","","","",$main)

with:

$sub = GUICreate("Sub Gui",285,156,"","",bitor($ws_popup,$ws_border),"",$main)

if you would like a different style on the sub gui
