In Windows XP and Windows 2000 (At least with SP4), in non-Delphi Apps, when
you click outside a modal window, the modal window Flashes to the attention
from the user.
For example: In Outlook Express, click File > Save As... then try to click
outside the modal window.

Why don't modal windows flash in Delphi? Is there a workaround?
