Actually I have not tested my previous sugestion. The only event that fires when the main VFP window receives (or looses focus) is the _Screen.Paint() event. So you can use this event, but be careful because ANYTHING that changes the view of the main VFP window (for example other overlaping windows that are moved) will fire this event.

As an alternative you can use the _Screen.Resize() event and when activating the VFP window - first minimize it and then Maximize it. It is not a pretty approach, but it will work.

As a third option I think I have seen an FLL that alows you to expose _SCREEN events, but I do not think that it will help you here. (_Screen.Activate event is fired only when you execute _Screen.Show)
