One assumes you could use this API function:
Private Declare Function SetFocus Lib "user32" _
(ByVal hwnd As Long) As Long
however, depending on the circumstances you may have to declare it
using an alias so that your code does not confuse it with Access's
SetFocus.
Salad,
Are you looking to do something like this ----
Dim AccessAppExtDb As Application
Dim DbCurrentDatabase As DAO.Database
Dim DbExternalDatabase As DAO.Database
Dim Rst As DAO.Recoedset
Dim PathToExtDb As String
Set DbCurrentDatabase = CurrentDb()
PathToExtDb = "C:\MyFolder\MyDatabase.mdb"
Set AccessAppExtDb = New Access.Application
AccessAppExtDb.OpenCurrentDatabase PathToExtDb
' You can open a form in the external database with
AssessAppExtDb.DoCmd.OpenForm "SomeForm"
' You can open a recordset in the external database with
Set Rst = AssessAppExtDb.OpenRecordset("Some SQL")
' You can open a form in the database containing this code with
DbCurrentDatabase.DoCmd.OpenForm "MyForm"

Hi Lyle, thanks for pointing me towards SetFocus. I had to explore a bit
further.
I couldn't get it to compile for some odd reason...I'd get an error
"Compile Error. Member already exists in an object module from which
this object module derives." ???...what the heck does that mean?
Anyway, my compile error line is
Private Declare Function _
SetFocus Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long) As Long
I do a search for "SetFocus Lib" in all modules in the app but that
phrase is not found. Hmmm...
Anyway, I scanned Google a bit and came up with ShowWindow API. Setting
the value to Restore displays the page correctly.

The CDMA charter prohibits advertising and Steve is the only consultant that
refuses to adhere to that charter. There are literally hundreds of competent
Access consultants available. Many post regularly in this newsgroup, others
can easily be located by googling or visiting guru.com.
Either Steve's advertising should be stopped or the CDMA charter should be
amended to permit it. Permitting Steve to continue advertising punishes the
many ethical consultants who contribute here but don't advertise.

Not quite. I enumerated through the list of open InternetExplorer
windows and stuffed the caption/url/hWnd to the listbox. I wanted to
take any of those columns and somehow activate the IE window...I did not
want to open another instance of IE for that URL.
It seems to work OK...using ShowWindow api with the hWnd and using
SW_RESTORE (9) as the value does the trick.
Yes, I think the function should be declared as
Private Declare Function APISetFocus Lib "user32" _
Alias "SetFocus" _
(ByVal hWnd As Long) _
As Long
and called as APISetFocus to clear up that confusion.
Go to http://www.mvps.org/vb and search for ForceForegroundWindow. This
will give you a module which you can drop in and call the function
(ForceForegroundWindow) to force the window to the top of the z order.

Steve,
In addition to spamming newsgroups, you're a liar, a cheat and a thief.
You've told countless lies in your postings in this newsgroups. This has
been apparent. I have never sent an email to you.
You've cheated customers that have tried to do business with you. This is
documented in usenet postings.
You sell, or attempt to sell, code that others have contributed to free

I suggest that it would be more effective, however, if all who do object

Hi Larry,
Thanks for your support!
For what it's worth:
If you object (and I know you do) will you be so kind as to be the first to object to Steve's news server and his ISP please!
Tell us how, and we might follow you.
For me (from Holland) this is quite difficult. I simply don't know how these complaints 'work' in the US ...
As from now follow-ups will contain a link to this 'dedicated' website
This website is live since 2 days, and is already receiving some real attention ...
Look at: http://home.tiscali.nl/arracom/whoissteve.html
If all potential PCD-customers see this (and I guess they will ...)
So for this moment posting follow-ups will continue. It is up to Steve.

Thanks Larry.
We've been trying hard to discourage Steve without making "the cure worse
than the disease". We've been limiting the response post to one per thread
rather than each follow up by Steve. Also the "From" line on each post
contains the word "Advertising" to make it easier for regulars that don't
wish to see this unpleasantness to killfile the source.
It's hard to know what to do. I posed that question a week ago (the one that
launched the blizzard). There were only a couple of members that stated an
objection to the posts and a half dozen or so that stated support for the
effort. This, out of the hundreds of regulars. I don't know what to infer
from that. Do all the others simply not care? Feel intimidated? Or, simply
prefer that others do the "dirty work"?
Out of the many professional consultants that contribute to cdma regularly,
Steve is the only one that posts spam.

Folks, it's pretty simple. TUrn on full headers in your newsreader and
extract the following:
X-Complaints-To: ab***@earthlink.net
Any ISP will want you to forward the post with full headers. If your
newsreader simply shows address, subject and date (and perhaps
organization), that's not good enough. Turn our format to full headers
and then forward the message. Provide a reasonable and not intolerant
sounding message such as:
"This user is consistently ignoring the charter of
comp.databases.ms-access, which is found at http://www.mvps.org/access/netiquette.htm, by advertising his services"
etc, etc.
This works when it happens enough times.

Steve,
At your current rate, I'd estimate you would likely have to live three or
more lifetimes to post as many advertisements, arguments, and answers to
this newsgroup as I have posted answers, all of which were FREE help to the
posters to this newsgroup. I was one of the official approvers of creation
of this newsgroup in 1993, and have been providing FREE (and nothing but
FREE) help to posters in the newsgroup ever since. That is the PURPOSE of
newsgroups -- to provide FREE help. It does not require "signing on" to
anything but the newsgroup.

You describe Arno R, John Marshall, Randy Harris and Keith Wilby to a T.
Just look at their posts and also count up how many contributions they have
made to CDMA in the past six months. This thread is an excellent example to
look at. I made a reasonable response to Salad. Arno R and his goons would
rather attack me (or send emails to my home) then help the poster. Count up
the responses by this quad of dimwits and note how many responses of theirs

not get help from this group? If not, then what are you going on about?

Yes, there's no dispute about the number of times you appear as a responder
but let's take a look at many of your responses --
- in many of your responses you say "...in my experience with this .." or
".. in my experience with that .." you would likely have to live three or
more lifetimes to get the experience you boast to have. You must have got a
lot of experience after you came to me a couple of years ago and asked if I
could subcontract some of the work I was doing for people from the
newsgroups to you!!
- in many of your posts, all you do is sermonize and when it is distilled
down looking for useful information, there's nothing there
- it's obvious in many of your posts that all you want to do is paint a
picture of a holier - than - thou Larry Linson whom everyone should listen
to and be spellbound.
- it's obvious in many of your posts that all you want to do is flaunt that
you are an MVP
You have let becoming an MVP go to your head!

PC Datasheet
Your Resource For Help With Access, Excel And Word Applications re******@pcdatasheet.com www.pcdatasheet.com
Over 1050 users have come from the newsgroups trusting me and requesting
help.
My fees are very reasonable.

Another question for you, Larry -----
Did you sign up to Lyle's call to provide FREE help to posters to the
newsgroups?
Steve,
At your current rate, I'd estimate you would likely have to live three or
more lifetimes to post as many advertisements, arguments, and answers to
this newsgroup as I have posted answers, all of which were FREE help to
the posters to this newsgroup. I was one of the official approvers of
creation of this newsgroup in 1993, and have been providing FREE (and
nothing but FREE) help to posters in the newsgroup ever since. That is the
PURPOSE of newsgroups -- to provide FREE help. It does not require
"signing on" to anything but the newsgroup.

Lyle put a call in CDMA within the past 4 to 6 weeks asking for MVPs and any
one else interested to form a group with a special signature line to provide
help in the newsgroup. He got zilch response. It's obvious you did not
respond. Ask Lyle!!!!
It is also obvious that you apparently did *not get* Lyle's message.
Just like a lot of other messages...
Sad...
I *do* feel pity for you: no brains, no support, no dignity left, no nothing but zilch
All sad.
Be sensible. Stop this thing.
*You* are in control Steve!!

So the original charter for CDMA was pay only support? A lot of us missed
that in the fine print.

Get a clue: welcome to Usenet.
Use your ISP's or a local spam filter to blacklist their email
addresses and then you'll never see their email to you.
Killfile them in your newsreader and you won't have to see their
"attacks" on you.
If you don't do that, and continue to conduct this silly little spat
in public, then you'll just look like a total wanker who is only
spoiling for a fight.

Is there anyone who would like to join me in a cadre in "free help"
providers. We would regularly respond to advertising posts with one
saying something like:
If you can't get the help you need in the newsgroup try contacting wh******@domain.com; if one of our group can help through direct e-mail
and consultation we will. Our group includes:
John Doe (experience and expertise)
etc
And Lyle got ZILCH response!!
