No, I want to do more than that, and I able to use PostMessage just to 
restore the window and bring it to the front.  The way my ap is used is 
that the user will probably run it, then minimize it while other work is 
done, then a folder will be checked, new input files will be chosen, and 
they will be opened with my ap, GoogleEarthTool which produces 
GoogleEarth KML files.

I want to get any filenames from the command line and pass them to the 
running instance as well as restore, etc.

But first things first, If I can use SendMessage with a trivial message 
then I know I can use it the filenames in a string (or better yet, a 
StringList).

Thanks for your kind help, Dennis.  I got so frustrated with this I 
started to learn Python!
