Hey There,
    I have been writing some code in C++ that gets a message from a
Macromedia Flash Player to launch an application that is associated
with a flash button. When the button is pressed, it launches the
application, but the app window is never completely in front. The C++
code that I have been using to do this is below:

        retVal =
CreateProcess(NULL,modName,NULL,NULL,FALSE,NULL,NULL,NULL,&si,&pi);
        hProc = pi.hProcess;
        procID = pi.dwProcessId;
        HPStruct.procID = procID;
        HPStruct.WindHandle = 0;
        fp = fopen(THREAD_LOG_FILE,"a+");
        fprintf(fp,"ProcID=%d\n",procID);
        fclose(fp);
        WaitForInputIdle(hProc,INFINITE);

EnumWindows((WNDENUMPROC)EnumOpenWindows,(LPARAM)&HPStruct);
        fp = fopen(THREAD_LOG_FILE,"a+");
        fprintf(fp,"After EnumWindows \n");
        fclose(fp);
        if(HPStruct.WindHandle != 0)
        {
            ShowWindow(HPStruct.WindHandle,SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED);
            retVal = BringWindowToTop(HPStruct.WindHandle);
                }

         Is there something with the flash player that stops the app
from being in front? When I have other windows open and launch the app,
it will always be in front of any other window BUT the flash player
window. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
  Jay
