>Thanks a lot, i got it to work. However, my input box does really stay on top. When it loads it gets to the top, but the user can still work with the software without doing anything with the input box. In other words, the input box is not modal to the software. Do you know how I can do that? Can SetWindowPos() do it?

Hi Pascal,

If you're trying to make your VFP modal on a system level (in other words the user cannot deal with anything else in Windows), you can stop trying because it's not possible. You could have your form (or screen maximized) and cover the entire Windows desktop, but the user could still access the start menu button, even by using SetWindowPos() to set it at the top of the Z-order. In Win 3.1 it was possible to create a system modal dialog. In Win32 it isn't. Sorry.
