Please ignore this post, I have the problem resolved!

Hi,

I have these 2 lines in my startup routine of VFP9

uIDEWinUP()
_oToolBox.Show()

The former brings up "Properties window", "ToolBox" and "Code reference" then tab-dock them to the left edge of the screen.

I then intend to use _oToolBox.Show() such that after all the 3 are docked (as a group), the middle tab, that is the toolbox will be brought to the front.

_oToolBox.Show() works if I type it in the command window, it is like I click the Toolbox tab to activate it.

But in the startup routine, I always have properties window in front even though I have added the line _oToolBox.Show(), it seems that it does nothing!

What I am missing, why it works in command window but not in the procedure code?

Any clue?
