    Z-order with parent/child windows

    I have a parent window with multiple child windows. How can I make the parent window come to the foreground and display on top of the child windows when the user wished to "use" the parent window. This app does not use MFC.

    Check out SetWindowPos() and SetForegroundWindow()

    Re: Z-order with parent/child windows

    It is in the fundamental nature of child windows to show on their parents. Even their coordinates are relative to their parents. It's not clear what you're trying to do, but if you want to make it appear that the parent is higher in the z-order, hide the children or move them outside the coordinates of the parent.
