Charles,

>I have a web browser control (WEBBROWSER4) on a non-modal form. The BeforeNavigate2 event contains code that start a new form (like a menu). The problem is that the new form is created but does not get focus. The form containing the web browser control stay activated on top of the new form. My only solution for now is to push "{CTRL+F1}" to the keyboard so the new form becomes activated ... not really what i want.

When dealing with COM or ActiveX-controls and their events I am ALWAYS!!! trying to get out of there as
soon as possible because they in fact are like standalone executables sometimes having their own thread etc.
When you're calling another form from within the event, the event is not ended until You come back from the "lower bottom of the form". If during this (long) way anything bad happens You might be in deep trouble.
I had crashes that You are totally unable to create when dealing with plain VFP.

So what I do now is employ timers for that sort of stuff. I use a very simple one like this

DEFINE CLASS tmrAction as timer
nDelay   = 20
cCommand = ""
Enabled  = .F.
Interval = 0

PROCEDURE INTERVAL
  local lcCMD

  *-- Make sure the timer only fires once!
  this.enabled = .F.
 
  lcCMD = allt(this.cCommand)
  &lcCMD
ENDPROC

PROCEDURE SETTIMER(tcCommand as String, tnInterval as integer)
  local lnDelay
  lnDelay       = iif(vartype(tnDelay)="N", tnDelay, this.nDelay)

  this.cCommand = tcCommand

  this.Interval = lnDelay
  this.Enabled  = .T.
ENDPROC

Now in the event I do something like

PROCEDURE BeforeNavigate2
  Thisform.tmrAction.SetTimer("do form Foo.scx with 'lcPara1', lnAnotherParameterMaybe")
  
ENDPROC

This will cause to 1. Set the timer and IMMEDIATELY return to the event. Thus the
IE-Control gets back control and can do whatever it wants. 2. 20ms later the timer
fires and calls the form, not knowing anything about an activeX anywhere. 3. If the
whole thing crashes now, this will be a normal VFP-error and You won't get problems
with dangling references and thelike.

Hope this helps.
