    CreateObject() Explanation.

    Can someone please explain to my why the following code opens the windows under the current focused window? I want them to open up focused.

    Code:
    Dim objShell
    Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
    objShell.FindFiles '(or FileRun)

    Unless I misunderstand, ShellExecute would be a better choice.

    Re: CreateObject() Explanation.

    Then the question is how would I use ShellExecute to bring up the Windows Run dialog box or the Windows Find dialog box?
