Re: How to bring a dialog itself to top?

I think he might be doing it at the wrong time or something.

Just as a test, put a dialog based app together, in the OnInitDialog set a
timer for 10 seconds, in the timer method do the following:

void CDialogFocusDlg::OnTimer(UINT nIDEvent)
{
   if (IsIconic())
   {
      ShowWindow(SW_RESTORE);
   }
   SetForegroundWindow();
   BringWindowToTop();
   SetActiveWindow();

   m_Edit.SetFocus();

   CDialog::OnTimer(nIDEvent);
}

Run the app, and set the focus to something else (something that covers the
dialog is even better).
