If you wrote that program, there are several ways to do (on Windows 3.0), 
but the simplest way is use a timer event.
For example, you can set a timer message for every 1 second.  When your
application receives this message, check the current active window.  If it's
not your window, call this function:

ShowWindow(hWnd, SW_SHOWNA);

This will bring your window on top while the active window is still unchanged.


Anyway, I also wrote a program that made one (any) parent window always on top
(for Windows 3.0).  This program is public domain.  If you want, I will send
it to you.  (I want a feedback about my program on Windows 3.1. :))
