	I'm writing an application which has a main window containing
the menus and a few other little things, and multiple "document"
windows. Ideally I'd like the document windows to behave like the
subwindows in the program manager, but am having a difficult time
doing that. If I make the document windows popup windows, the main
window loses input focus when any document window becomes active, just
as you'd expect. So I make them child windows, then they almost behave
like the program manager, but none of the child window shows an active
title bar like the program manager does for the current active child
window. Can someone tell me how that's accomplished? I've tried
various window style flags to no avail. Thanks much!
