How about, in each of the subwindow's window procedures, whenever they
loses the focus or become de-activated, setting themselves to the 
bottom most window (with WinSetWindowPos).  I.e., the window procedure
would have something like (I don't have a manual here, so this is
probably not correct in any details:

   switch (msg) {
   case WM_ACTIVATE or WM_SETFOCUS:
      if (SHORT?FROMMP(mp?) == 0) {
	// losing focus...
        WinSetWindowPos(hwndFrame, ..., HWND_BOTTOM, ...., SWP_ZORDER);
      }
      
That should work, but of course I've never actually tried it.  Alternatively,
whatever function is causing the window to lose the focus could do the 
moving of the window.  Whatever is more elegant for your app.
