How can I minimize/maximize a Teststand application window from a CVI DLL

I am making calls from TestStand 3 into DLL I have written in CVI 7. This works fine, but I would like to be able to minimize and restore the TestStand application window from within the CVI DLL.

Any Ideas???

Thanks,
Alan

I am not aware of any api method to do this. If NI doesn't answer this with some api method that I'm not aware of you'll have to use PostUIMessageEx to post a custom message to the runtime operator interface. The runtime operator interface could react to the message and change the window state to whatever is desired. Of course you'll have to modify the RTOI to handle the custom message and of course this would work in the sequence editor (Bummer). Hopefully NI will have a better answer!
