How to keep a Windows form on top of other programs

1 New Member
I am using a windows application to start other processes. I am looking for a way to keep the form itself as the topmost program until it is closed, allowing the other programs enough load time.

  1. public void MakeOnTop()
  2. {
  3.    myTopForm.TopMost = true;
  4. }
See if this works for you

Hi, I know that some older Unix programs that compile with GCC use socket.h to connect to and execute other programs. However, I am using Visual C++ 6.0 and it doesn't seem to have socket.h included. Is there any standard cross-platform way (ie can compile in both Visual C++ 6 and GCC) to execute and connect to other programs? Thanks, John P

I need to add the ability to drag from a Windows Form and drop into a non dotNet application. For example, having a generated image in my app that I wish to drag out into explorer as a friendly way to save it. I have tried creating the object that I place into the DoDragDrop() by inheriting the COM interfaces IDropSource and IDataObject with no luck. If anyone can help I am very much open to suggestions. Thanks in advance!

In vb.net, how do I show or activate a different windows form other than the one that is currently active? I've set up my project so that the default form is a form with several command buttons. Each button, when clicked will show or activate a different windows form. The problem is that I cannot find the correct code/syntax to write for the command button that causes a different windows form to be displayed. Any help is much appreciated........

With VS2005 the windows form designer uses the files *.Designer.vb I hope no one at MS is reading this because I know it will upset them to know - I like the old way better! I've been looking at the Options available for the Windows Form Designer and do not see one that would give me the older method. Is there such an option?

How do you keep a form on top of an application only. I know that I can use "TopMost" to keep a form on top of the other forms, but that solution is Windows scope instead of only my application scope. I have a floating "Totals" screen (among others) so that a user can see which checks will print, total receipts, and other items. They can resize the form, and move it anywhere on the screen, so creating a dock area on the screen is not...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
