I may have been mistaken about when the activate event does not fire, but, that is exactly your problem. I remember an old thread about this and I also did some testing myself. The only way I was able to reliably do what I wanted was put the code in the init event.

>>Activate does not fire when the project is docked. I got around this be placing the code in the init of the project. I try and have only one project open at a time so this works well for me.
