I'm working on a program that needs to bring an already opened IE window to the front of the screen.  I looked on the MSDN site for help.  I've tried using ShowWindow(), ShowWindowAsync(), BringWindowToTop() and SwitchToThisWindow() [which wouldn't compile].

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.
