I don't really understand what you're trying to do. You first said
that Raise() works, but you couldn't make it active since there is no
function for this. I checked and I didn't see one either. Are you
really sure that that your UI can only work if you bring your app to
the foreground and make it active when the mouse go into the window?
What's wrong with the user dragging stuff onto the app and then
clicking the app the raise and focus it?
