<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have an application that consists soley of one form. I would like to add the option to make the window always on top. I have read other questions and tried using the SetWindowPos API. However, it doesnt exactly do what i want. If my app is running, and then I run another application, like notepad, and maximize notepad my application gets covered and therefore is not always on top. I want something like what happens when you choose Always on Top in Winzip. Winzip loses focus, but will never get covered and you can give it focus simply by clicking on it. Does anyone know how to do what im describing?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance.

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
