Yes, sort of. Try looking at my documentation/gui, the "Destruction of a
modal dialog (32)" case. In real windows, the dialog's parent (MSWord main
window?) is activated (and hence focused) even before the dialog itself
receives WM_DESTROY. Although I haven't checked exactly when the children
are destroyed in this sequence, it does not matter for this since the
focus is apparently changed explicitly before they do anyway.
