Hi!
There is an API section here at the UT. Take a look there. If you do not find the ShowWindow API function, you will find a lot of other VFP samples for other API functions, so you will learn how to use them in General.
HTH.

In the meantime, I'd like to provide the users with a program where they can enter the customer number and if the customer exists in the old system, the (already running) old system will be brought to the top and if the customer is in the new system, then the (already running) new system will be brought forward...

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs
It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
