Bring window to front of screen on Windows [message #44443]

I've been trying to solve this for some time, and haven't found any
real solution. Basically, I've got an IDL app under windows that uses
Java to handle network connectivity as well as user login support. The
problem is this: after my Java code finishes, I need some way of
ensuring that the IDL main window will get brought back to the front of
the screen.

I've tried using WIDGET_CONTROL with the /MAP, /SHOW, and ICONIFY=0
flags, and it *does* bring it to the front of all IDL windows - but it
doesn't bring it in front of other programs. If it currently has input
focus, this is all well and good, but if the user has clicked on
another program (or the Java windows have been active), it doesn't do
me any good at all. This seems like it should be simple enough, and it
does work on Linux - but that doesn't help me very much.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

David Watson
