Does anyone know a way of making an item the highest form ? (eg nothing can
go above it, stays on top ?)
I have used the
TopMost = True
But if users hit the Start Button, it then goes over the top. Anyway of
keeping it higher or another way around the problem ?

Of course the startmenu goes ontop, that's the nature of the OS.

Not sure that is possible, since, as I said, that defeats the nature of the
OS. In addition, any attempt to change the expefted behavior is likely to
piss off you users.
Having said that, After setting TopMost=true, you could aways respond to the
Deactivate event and bring the windows to front again.
See also, if the SetForgroundWin dow() API would help you.

I have an application that needs a window to stay on top of the other ones, I thought that TopMost = true would be suitable for this feature but it also makes this window to stay on top of all other application running on my PC, Does anybody know How can I prevent this TopMost window appear when I switch to the other applications??

Hello,
I have a VB6 app that calls a VB.NET app via named pipes and a third

Public Sub ThisIsMySub(TheseAreMyArguments)
Me.Show
Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal
Me.TopMost = True

Hello,
My VB.NET application displays a Windows form in a panel
on my main form. While my application has the focus, I
want the form in the panel to have the "topmost"
position, even if it is not the active form.
Everything works as expected, but if the user selects
another application by pressing a tab in the taskbar,
then my "topmost" form still occupies the "topmost"

I learned about the TopMost property from a recent post which solved some
problems.
But I have a situation where a control wants to make the form it is on be
the topmost.
It could raise an event but be cleaner if it could do it directly.
I tried the following but the compiler thinks Parent is a control (they
don't have a topmost property.)

Has anyone experienced similar problems? is there a fix? or I am...

Hi,
I have a dialog box that must behave as MessageBox does
with regard to the TopMost property. It must be TopMost if
and only if the calling form is TopMost. A static method
creates the dialog box. Is there a way of determining if the
application is TopMost from a static method?
There are some inelegant workarounds but I would prefer to
do whatever MessageBox does.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
