SETFOREGRO

Link error.
Which lib do I have to use?

Thanks in advance
Otto

Try this:

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

DLL32 FUNCTION SETFOREGROUNDWINDOW( hWnd AS LONG ) AS BOOL;
      PASCAL FROM "SetForegroundWindow" LIB "user32.dll"

Thank you.
ShowWindow(hWnd,9)
setFocus(hWnd)
SETFOREGRO(hWnd)
This works fine but not with VISTA.
If the WINDOW is MINIMIZED ShowWindow(hWnd,9) does not work.

It seems a bug in Windows Vista. It is Microsoft responsibility to correctly implement their Windows API.

Otto,

If you provide a reduced and self contained PRG sample, then we will be able to quickly compile it and test it and offer you a solution for it. Thanks,
