make another program window focused

[Anchor Blue]

you no when you type in shell "c:\windows\whatever.exe"
when you do that, it makes the program minumized, so how do i make the program pop up?

[Chris Eastwood]

The 'Shell' command defaults to minimized if you don't supply the second parameter.

The second parameter takes an enumerated type such as vbMinimized, vbMaximizedFocus etc - a window should popup with the list of available options when you type a ',' after the program name (or just check the help that comes with vb).
