Yes, this is actually what turned out to be my problem in a message I 
posted a few days ago (that no one responded to)

If you change "=explorer" to a window caption string using asterisks, 
you can just show the actual windows that were open, instead of _all_ 
windows belonging to the program, (which usually includes hidden 
internal pgm stuff etc)

You can probably get around this with something like

if (activewindow("*ms query analyzer*")) do
    # send the message
else
    # do something else

or maybe use anywindow instead of activewindow... etc.
