Hi.

I add a modalless form to my app with WS_EX_APPWINDOW ExStyle
and with the desktop window as parent.

Now, I have 2 buttons on the task bar window.
One for the MainForm and one for the new form (lets call it MyForm).

So, where is the problem ?

The problem is that when I show a modal form or msg box from the MyForm
the MainForm pop up to the front and the modal form appear on it, and when
it closed the MyForm return to the front.

How do I prevent it from happend ?
