Interacting with running processes

Hi

I'm running an app that has been designed in VB.Net. Also running is an
Internet Explorer window.

At a certain point in my app I want to maximize the Internet Explorer
window, give it the focus and display it on top. After a certain length of
time I want the Internet Explorer window to lose focus, go to back and
minimize.

I've no difficulty in getting the "triggers" in my app and I've no problem
identifying the Internet Explore process....but having found the running
process of Internet Explore I only seem to be able to "closemainwindow" or
"kill" but cannot find a way to miximise the main windo and bring it to the
front......

does anyone have any suggestions

Regards
