>>I'm sending some commands to another application via DDE. When I did this with this particular application through VB, I found I needed to 'AppActivate' the DDE server in order for the commands to complete smoothly. I cannot seem to find an equivalent operation in VFP5 (makes a specified program the foreground application, while the VFP app drops to the background).

Thanks, but I need a little more. They're not VFP commands (not in 5.0, anyway) so I presume I need to call it from FoxTools, or something?
