Did u try BringWindowToTop(hwnd) API function?

Thanks for the reply<br />

yes I've tried that and it returns a TRUE as if the function is successful, but the window remains behind the main application.

Hi,<br />
<br />
I have a MFC Dialog control with an OpenGL window embedded into it and other controls associated also.<br />
<br />
One of my controls loads up a child dialog control, however the focus of the child is &quot;lost&quot; and it falls behind the main application (one way to get focus is to press &quot;ALT&quot; but this is obviously not ideal!!!).<br />
<br />
I've tried a few things but they dont seem to work (such as setfocus, setforegroundwindow etc..) although I'm open to any suggestions!!!<br />
<br />
On a side note, if the child dialog is modeless then this problem is not evident!!<br />
<br />
Anyone experienced this? Or any ideas on how to fix it? <br />
<br />
As always much appreciated.<br />
<br />
Cheers
