i intend to write a little app thats purpose will be to sit in the background on 1 pc and monitor one foxpro table in an accounting system for new entry's. it will check the entry for validity.

i intend to have this app run minimised and what i would like to have it do is pop itself up over anything else running in order that the user can be warned of an exception situation.

i can do all of this except the bringing itself to the front of other apps.

anyone got any clues --- a windows api call i expect ?

regards
