De-Activating Dialog Windows


 keywords: activate disable dialog window

Question:

How i can suppress an (updated) dialog screen from popup into the front of my windows applications?

i have created an winbatch prog that will load sometime(timedelay) different dialogs. but each time while i'm working in other win-applications the dialogs popup directly into front and i have to click it away... i want it to stay into background until i click the running winbatch prog in the taskbar.

how can i set this?

Answer:

Maybe you want to add to your script, IntControl(62,-2,0,0,0) to tell the dialog NOT to force itself to the top window, but instead to quietly lurk in the background.

You may want to do it AFTER the dialog is displayed for the first time, so the first time the program is run it forces its way to the top, but not otherwise.
