George,

THanks! Glad to see that I'm not just plain nuts. Well.. Glad to see somone else has seen this behavior. <g>

Best,

DD

>I use Top Level Forms all of the time and started noticing this behavior in VFP 6. It is a major pain. The way that I have gotten around it is to add this code to the init of my Top Level Form:
>
>DECLARE INTEGER FindWindow IN Win32API STRING, STRING
>DECLARE INTEGER SetForegroundWindow IN "User32.dll" INTEGER
>hWnd = FindWindow(0,"Account Analysis Input")
>=SetForegroundWindow(hWnd)
>
>The second parameter in the FindWindow() is the caption of the form.
