Bring Window To Foreground?
Oct 15, 2009I am trying to use appactivate to bring a window to the foreground however this is not working. When the program is already open on the desktop and there are other windows on top of it and I use AppActivate then it brings that window into the foreground. However if that window is minimized to the windows bar below, then the only thing appactivate does is have that program selected but it does not bring it into the foreground. I need to have any window forced to the foreground while retaining its original size.

Oct 24, 2009So I have this code to make a "windows taskbar". When you click on an item, it's supposed to bring that window to the front. The only problem is that's not happening. When I use Debug.WriteLine, it has the right window title, except it doesn't come to the front. What's wrong? There is no EntryPointNotFoundException or anything, it just doesn't bring the window to the front.

Winforms - Bring Window On Top Of All Windows?
Dec 17, 2011I have a window which should stay on top of Power point slide shows. So it should be on top of all the windows. I did this easily using VB 6 using Lib "user32", but it seems to be difficut with VB.net.
Me.TopMost = True
This does not seem to work as it works only within the program.

View 3 RepliesOpen An External Browser Window And Refresh It Inside Application?
Feb 27, 2012We have an existing VB.net application. Upon an event, we need to open a browser window. I'm able to open the browser window like this:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://s3web01/suggestions?item=" + strItem + "&co=" + strOrder)
Upon another event, we need to refresh the browser window with different parameters for strItem and strOrder.
If I call the same code above, it opens a new tab in the browser window. Is there any way to refresh the same browser window that was previously opened?

Towards the end of the process a dialog (YesNo) may appear, the user needs to click depending on their choice.This dialog will always appear behind my application (and any others opened or handled since) Is it possible to give the dialog top focus?

Jul 19, 2010I am developing an application having multiple screens appearing one after another using vb.net. My requirement is to bring some screens (windows form) in front of the user to take input and some of the forms can work in background (behind other applications) as they are only progress showing forms.
I tried Me.active(), Me.BringToFront(), Me.Focus(), and also some of the APIs like GetForegroundWindow(),SetForegroundWindow(), ShowWindow() etc, but failed to do so.
I tried another set of instructions
Me.TopMost = True
Me.Active()
Me.TopMost = False
Its works for me but once my form come in front, no other application can appear on top untill the my form is selected manually. Although I tried Me.Select() and Me.Focus() after above mentioned set of instructions but failed.
