Re: Activating a window programmatically in Win2000.

Hi Steph,

After discussing this issue with the LabVIEW developers, it turns out
that the issue is pure Windows 2000. LabVIEW simply calls the Windows
API through the "WINUTIL.llb", so it's not a LabVIEW limitation that it
doesn't work in Windows 2000. After some further investigation, it
turns out that in Windows 2000, only a window with focus can give focus
to another window. This is causing the VI not to be able to give itself
the focus when executing. Probably there is a way to do it correctly in
Windows 2000, but that is a question for Microsoft.
