Focusing on another window - Tony - 13-05-2007
For an example, my program is focused on another program using if statements etc. on it.

you want to know if a window is in focus or how to put it in focus?
- Robin - 13-05-2007
frmGAYWINDOW.setfocus
- Da Undead - 13-05-2007
example..
Code:
On Error Resume Next
frmMirage.txtMyTextBox.SetFocus- Ramsey - 13-05-2007
Would it be possible to set it true or false? Exactly what would happen if you focused on that text box?

To unfocus, you'll need to setfocus something else.

if windowblah.visible then
windowblah.setfocus
else
frmmirage.setfocus
end if
or something

No I mean a whole different program. XD Should've been more clear.

I think using .Focus will work on any project, because its not an function, its apart of VB.
- funkynut - 14-05-2007
yes but that will only work within a single program
Kuja, I think if you want to do that, you have to find out hwnd and all that malarke for the window you want to set in focus so you can do that (Just guessing, that what you need when you want to rearrange window Zorder)
I don't know code for setting focus specifically, but I know code to rearrange window zorder which can also set focus if you want, so its basically the same thing. I'll find it after school if you still want it
