Help bring window forward

SAL
Hello,
I'm having trouble bringing a window to the front of all windows in an
application I'm building. Actually, it's two applications that communicate
via .NET Remoting. I'm trying to get the client remoting app to tell the
server remoting app to bring itself to the front of all windows and it just
doesn't seem to be working. I've tried the following methods to make this
happen.
If the server app (it's an exe that accepts messages from the client exe),
I've tried two different API calls and to intrinsic form methods:
API's:
BringWindowToTo p(mWnd.ToInt32)
ShowWindow(mWnd .ToInt32, SW_SHOW)

Intrinsic methods:
Form.TopMost
Form.TopLevel

Can someone help me with how to get this form to the front? I have to have
it there to get a picture of it and save it as a jpg.

Thanks

Don't know if this is the right place to post this JavaScript issue. If not, could someone point me in the right direction please. I am trying to make a "cross browser compliant" floating iFrame. Not real fancy, just load, resize and move. But, I do not have the browsers, OSs and different machines (like Mac) to test the code on. So I need some help to see where this basic example of works and does not work.

page0.asp->page1.jsp When the user click submit button in page0.asp, it will post the form request to page1.jsp. page0.asp and page1.jsp are in separate machines. In page1.jsp, based on the parameter interfaceName, it will forward to different jsp pages. However, we want to forward the request to a window with parameter like the following, without the menu bar and toolbar.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
