Yes. I closed all open applications, launched the DE, created the
window, launched several other applications (Word, Internet Explorer,
Acrobat, and ArcGIS), went back to the DE, entered the PLOT command
(window still in the background at this point), then typed WSHOW, 0.
The plot window was brought to the front of the stack, with the DE
sitting right behind it.
