Hi!
I have a very simple windows form (Visual Basic, .NET-Framework 2.0).
This is my whole code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(B yVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e
As System.EventArg s) Handles Button1.Click
Dim myThread As New System.Threadin g.Thread(Addres sOf
testThread)
myThread.Start( )
End Sub
Public Sub testThread()
Dim myProcess As New Process
myProcess.Start Info.Arguments = "fd806001"
myProcess.Start Info.FileName = "D:\Tools\vncvi ewer.exe"
myProcess.Start ()
End Sub
End Class
The vncviewer.exe ist the vncviewer, provided by Ultra VNC. When I
start the Process, everything works fine and Ultra VNC launches. When
I now close Ultra VNC, my application is in background of all open
windows. When I switch to the vncviewer proveded by RealVNC,
everything works fine and after closing the Viewer, my application got
the focus back (in foreground).
Same is with notepad++ (minimizes my application) and Windows notepad
(correct behaviour).
How can that be, that when I close the process my application is
pushed in background?
Best regards,
Sebastian

I don't know that there is a predictable behaviour for which window becomes
active when you close any given application. Since your process start code
is isolated in a thread, that thread could wait for the process to exit, and
activate the form when that occurs.

Hi Sebastian,
Tried with Windows notepad and closing Notepad didn't cause form
minimizing. However though it's hard to say more without seeing other
code and things related to TightVNC's behaviours, i recommend making
your form got focus again:
If i understood correctly, with using this code you'll determine that
your process has exited by "hasExited" boolean, then if your process
is exited and when your form is minimized for *some" reason, you can
make your form stay with normal window state.
' -------- Begin -------
Public Class Form1
Dim myProcess As New Process
Private Sub Button1_Click(B yVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles Button1.Click
Dim myThread As New System.Threadin g.Thread(Addres sOf testThread)
myThread.Start( )
End Sub
Public Sub testThread()
myProcess.Start Info.Arguments = "fd806001"
myProcess.Start Info.FileName = "D:\Tools\vncvi ewer.exe"
myProcess.Start ()
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_resize(By Val sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles MyBase.Resize
If myProcess.HasEx ited = True Then
If Me.WindowState = FormWindowState .Minimized Then
Me.WindowState = FormWindowState .Normal
End If
End If
End Sub
End Class
' ------ End -------
Hope this helps,

Hi!
Thanks for your answers. I tried your solution and I think, I found
the reason. It's not your solution that fixes the problem, but the
FormBorderStyle . I selected "FixedToolWindo w", that leads to the
described behaviour. When I use e.g. "FixedSingl e", everything works
fine.
Best regards,
Sebastian

It all works perfectly except that if you open the Task Manager after

time the extract has been run.
I cannot seem to find anything on this, I have the application closing
properly as far as I can see, but it is staying in the process table and the
only way to get rid of it is to either reboot...
