    Vlad, I followed the discussion with Chris (Setting Focus to Top Level Form) and though I have a code-example now, I don't think I can get this to work;
    In VFP5 there seems no _SetForehandWindow API.
    BTW, if another task is at the taskbar (so, minimized), my input is in this other task. I guess if no task is there, my input is at the desktop ? (didn't check that).
    I just tried for another hour, but can't get around this anoying thing...

    I can resize the forms, maximize them etc., perform a SetFocus on the Control of the form, but it remains inactive.
