CVI 6.0 ConfirmPopup problem with windows XP

[GE_Osmonics]

Hello:

Using CVI 6.0

Running CVI application and launching external application using LaunchExecutableEx( OtherProgram )

from within CVI program.

void function( void )

{

   // select other program with mouse click

  run_a_ 2 min_ delay();

  ConfirmPopup( "the message" ); // at this point Win 98, 2000 and NT will bring to front the CVI window and

                                                       // display the popup message, Win XP will turn the CVI program TAB red and blink

                                                       // you then must click on the CVI tab to display the CVI window and popup.

                                                       // anyway I can get around this with out using higher CVI revision?

}

Thank you!

You could bring the panel back to the front programmatically. This is discussed here:

If your panel is minimized at this moment, try to maximize it programmatically:

Hope this helps!

Hello:

void function (void)

{

 MakeApplicationActive(); // no effect using the quicky popups like ConfirmPopup() or MessagePopup()

                                         // Guess I would have to create a panel and then use MakeApplicationActive()

                                        // to make it active over other running application windows

                                       // Thanks for trying
