Use the GetActiveWindow API call in a timer event to see which window has
the current focus.  If it is not active, use HWND_NOTOPMOST with
SetWindowPos, else use HWND_TOPMOST.

Chris Schram

Try this:

Declare Sub SetWindowWord Lib "User" (ByVal hwnd%, ByVal nCmd%, ByVal
nVal%)
Global Const SWW_HPARENT = -8

Call SetWindowword(frmSub.hWnd, SWW_HPARENT, frmMain.hWnd)

Rich just use the following in VB:

If your subsiduary forms are called e.g. form2 and form3 then use

Form2.Show 1
Form3.Show 1

Putting the 1 after the show call makes the child window modal to the apps
main window but not to any other app.

OK.
