I found a solution for my original problem (see below). Now I notice that
when this application is launched from within a batch file the same problem
re-surfaces. What now?

[Original Problem]
When I first launch my application, its icon appears in the Alt+Tab list.
When I open any of its modeless child windows and leave the focus on the
child, the application icon disappears from the Alt+Tab list. If I leave the
child window open but switch focus to the application's main window, its
icon reappears in the Alt+Tab list.
