Asked by SRabidou in Visual Studio .NET 2005, Microsoft Visual Basic.Net

Tags: vb.net

I would like to be able to Maximize (resize when minimized) & Bring Focus to (bring to front)  an external program.  To set focus i have used the AppActivation command but was not satisfied having to use the title bar's name.  

Stipulation: the external program must not be closed and repopened to achieve set focus and maximized  window status.
