Hi Remy,


I found information about SetForegroundWindow at MSDN site.  They gave me
aditional information about this function such as FlashWindowEx fuction, but
when run the follow code I suppose that windows must be fhashing, but
nothing happenened.

It could be  the handler  badly defined?
I didn't get correctly the application handler ?





bool TRunningProcessManager::TraerAlFrenteProcesoEnEjecucion( AnsiString
args_NombreProceso)
{




  //local variables
  tagPROCESSENTRY32 pe32;
  HWND snap_hand  ;
  HWND mihandler;

  //initial assignment
  snap_hand = CreateToolhelp32Snapshot(TH32CS_SNAPPROCESS,0);
  pe32.dwSize = sizeof(pe32);

  //getting system proccess
  if ( (int) snap_hand == -1 )
    return false;


  if( !Process32First( snap_hand,&pe32 ) )
    return false;

  while( Process32Next ( snap_hand,&pe32 ) )
    {

    if( args_NombreProceso ==  pe32.szExeFile )
      {
      mihandler = OpenProcess(PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS,false,(int)
pe32.th32ProcessID);
      if(mihandler)
        {
          SetForegroundWindow(mihandler);
          FLASHWINFO x = {sizeof(FLASHWINFO),mihandler, FLASHW_ALL ,10000,
50};
          FlashWindowEx(&x);  <================================== this line
doen't work
          return true;

        }   // en if ps is not zero
      }     // end if both names are equal
    }       //end while


}
