I posted earlier about using a worker process to spawn processes. When the
worker creates a new process the new process window becomes the front most
window long enough to allow the worker to get the window ref...
------------
//myWorkerProcess
$frontmostWindow:=Frontmost window
vXYZProcessNumber:=New process(“XYZProcessMethod”;0;”XYZProcessName")
While ($frontmostWindow=Frontmost window)
IDLE
End while
vXYZProcessWindowRef:= Frontmost window
------------
Now anytime you need the window ref to bring the window forward, or for a CALL
FORM, you can ask the worker for it. Or, as I am doing, have the worker execute
the desired action.
