Usually just "The <Name> window displays. Select sdhfhdsg" as per any std
window rather than get flustered over the presence or not of the previous
dialog. I assume the windows have different title to allow for this style of
identification.

What terminology would you use in an
end user manual when referring to a child window (a window that is accessed
by selecting a button, etc. from a main window). My end users are not
particularly computer savvy and they will not know what a child window is.
