>You can use the Is_Run32 function (available in the download section under Win32 and other APISs), to retrieve the window for Execl by passing it the known portion of the title bar (ie - "Microsoft Excel"). Then you can use the following:

>DECLARE SHORT BringWindowToTop IN Win32API;

>llresult = (BringWindowToTop(lnhWnd) # 0)

>hth,

But, if the window for Excel was minimized you need to use the ShowWindow function to restore it.
...
#define SW_RESTORE 9
declare SHORT ShowWindow in wi32api INTEGER hWnd, INTEGER nCmdShow
ShowWindow( lnhWnd, SW_RESTORE)
