Thanks for your help Jon. I was able to change certain window properties, but not the -topmost property. It's not that big of a deal to re-create the window, so I can live with it for now. Here's another situation, I use a window with a toolbar to fire dialog boxes. Usually when I click the close button on one of those dialogs, the dialog closes like it should, however in some cases the dialog doesn't close, but does return the focus to the main window. I assume it's okay to use the _Terminate event when these dialogs close and every dialog is created the same way. Before the dialogs close I try to capture the ->Top, ->Left, and save them so that when the dialog is reopened it opens in the same location. Has anyone faced a similar situation? I can supply my code if you'd like to see what I'm doing. Has someone successfully implemented tooltips? I would like to use tooltips, but so far I haven't been able to get the tip to display when the mouse is over the object. I'd like to get it working for my toolbar buttons. If someone has working code they could post, I'd be a very happy person.
