I've been getting a headache out of trying to make the "SetForegroundWindow" work in Win2K.
I am running a second application, from my main application/form, via SHELL... when this second application finishes, I want to bring the first one back to the foreground.
It works impecably well in Win98, but in Win2K I only get the flashing bottom caption... my main application window stays in the background!
This is the piece of code that works perfectly in Win98:
.....
SHELL "SecondApplication.exe"
SetForegroundWindow(MainForm.Handle)
....
I've tried to use the "AllowSetForegroundWindow" function in Win2K, but it does not seem to fix it (and of course, it does not work under Win98). I am adding it in the same form/application I want to bring to the foreground, right after the SHELL line:
.....
SHELL "SecondApplication.exe"
AllowSetForegroundWindow(GetCurrentProcessId)
SetForegroundWindow(MainForm.Handle)
.....
But this does not change anything!! (I've tested the "GetCurrentProcessId" function and it seems to work well).
Is there something else I can try? How can I bring that main form/application back to the foreground once the SHELL application finishes?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,

I thought also about a combination of functions (like the example you mention), but can't find the correct one... and it's only under Win2K that this happens!
Any other ideas?
Thanks again,
