what exactly do you mean? do you mean, have an application open a new window, then switch focus back to the window that it was opened from?

*edit*

if that is the case, try adding this to your code immediately after you open the new window:

UseWindow(#window)
ActivateWindow()

#window = the constant for the window you want to give focus to.

*end of edit*

I want to open menu in window zero say. Then Call a sub program. The sub program I want to open full screen, so I assume I have to Hide window 0, and open a New window. Then that sub is supposed to do its thing, say enter some data. After that I want the program to return to the original menu so it can select a nother sub program ect.
