VISTA not behaving like previous OS

(I have posted this in the Access site before, with no response. Hope you
can help. thanks)

I have an application that has been working fine in XP. From within the Main
application, it sometimes opens another application (.OpenCurrentDatabase).
In all other OS, the new application is opened on top of the Main application
and all forms from within that application are opened on top of it.

In Vista, the new application is Minimize and the user has to click on it to
see it. And now I found that forms opened by the new applications are hidden
and cannot be seen at all.


Any suggestions?


many thanks
George

Vista is a very different operating system from XP. If this application is
one you've written yourself, post your question in one of the many
developer newsgroups. If this is a third-party application, contact the
makers of it for tech support with their product.
