dismissModalViewControllerAnimated doesn't return

If I push a view onto the Navcontroller it works great and I can return from it either with code or using the Nav Controller back button.

Then I change it to present the view modally. The preset works but I cant get it to return and dismiss the modal view.

This works... main view

   Tools *screen = [[Tools alloc] initWithNibName:@"Tools" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];

     [mainNavController pushViewController:screen animated:YES];

    [screen release];

One the modal view:

- (IBAction)btnCancel:(id)sender {


  [self.navigationController popToViewController:[self.navigationController.viewControllers  objectAtIndex:0] animated:YES];


}

But then I change it to modal like this on the modal view it does not go back to the main view.

Tools *screen = [[Tools alloc] initWithNibName:@"Tools" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];

 [mainNavController presentModalViewController:screen animated:YES];

  [screen release];

On the modal view:

- (IBAction)btnCancel:(id)sender {


    [self.parentViewController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];


}

I have tried about everything I can think of, obviously I am missing something! Any ideas?

thanks for any help!!

Is your btnCancel method actually getting called? Have you tried inserting an NSLog statement or breakpoint to verify that?

Your code looks right to me, so I'm wondering if you've just not hooked something up in Interface Builder.
