Hi RichW, I really do want the application to be in the task manager. The process is normally unobtrusive but I would like to display a &quot;console&quot; in the event of a &quot;switch-to&quot;. &nbsp;There should be someway to detect this, don't you think?

I have a VB6 program that normally runs &quot;invisibly&quot; without a form so it doesn't show on the taskbar. <br />
It does show in the task manager and when the user clicks on the process in the task manager I'd like the application to detect that. &nbsp;Is that possible? I'll gladly give more points to show appreciation for a working answer. &nbsp;<br />

Thanks!<br />

Task Manager Switch-To

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.
