My application losing the focus!

Dear developers,

I'm developing an application which uses MSWord Interop interface. When
my application launches MSWord, my application itself loses the focus
(even if MSWord is not visible).

Is there any way to prevent this from happening, or to give the focus
back to my application?

Running Me.Focus() does not work at all, even if I launch when MSWord
has already been terminated.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance!
