If the top-level is a child window of the _SCREEN, it won't work. I investigated this once, and I don't think that it is, but I'm not 100% sure. Anyway, I digress...here's what I'd try: Load Foxtools and get the window handle of the form using -

lnhwnd = _WhTohWnd(_WFindTitl(< form caption >))

then

DECLARE INTEGER SetForegroundWindow IN Win32API;
>  INTEGER hWnd
>= SetForegroundWindow(lnhwnd)

It may, however, be a Win2K issue. I don't know.


Thanks. I may try it just for the fun of it, if I get the time!
I'll save this message and try it some day!
