vb program not on top
i have a vb program i wrote. its an "exe" that is kicked off by a macro in solidworks.
for years it has run fine, but recently we have started getting some computers with winxp x64. the program works but it doesn't come up on top of the solidworks window. it blinks in the task bar. its not minimized as i don't have that option even available to the user. it just doesn't steal the focus from the solidworks application....but only on winxp x64. on regular winxp it works fine.

this is a known 64 bit issue. there are a couple threads here about it.
i'll get you eh steve, if it's the last thing i dooooo!
was there a solution? i've searched this forum but i guess i'm not wording it correctly.

search seems to pretty much suck here. i finally found the following by searching for "taskbar".

there's a solution for vba which should probably work in vb. i answered it in this thread:
