Hi,

I've written a more complex program in VB6 with a single
form, so that I can use it for work in Excel multiple
times. This way, I don't have to use VBA code in the
modules. It works great! I want to thank people who have
helped me here in the past. It's been a part time project
for me over the months - and it's been a lot of fun.

I have one problem. How do I get the VB6 form to stay in
the foreground? With Excel 2000 and better we could write
this with VBA in a module (for example): "frmText.Show
vbModeless" and it worked fine. But now with VB6, I can't
do the same, so that the VB6 form is in the foreground.

I found something interesting on the internet that was
this:

Const HWND_TOPMOST = -1
Const HWND_NOTOPMOST = -2
Const SWP_NOSIZE = &H1
Const SWP_NOMOVE = &H2
Const SWP_NOACTIVATE = &H10
Const SWP_SHOWWINDOW = &H40
Private Declare Sub SetWindowPos Lib "User32" (ByVal hWnd
As Long, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Long, ByVal X As Long,
ByVal Y As Long, ByVal cx As Long, ByVal cy As Long, ByVal
wFlags As Long)

Private Sub Form_Activate()
'Set the window position to topmost
SetWindowPos Me.hWnd, HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0,
SWP_NOACTIVATE Or SWP_SHOWWINDOW Or SWP_NOMOVE Or
SWP_NOSIZE
End Sub

Would this work for a VB6 form to keep it in the
foreground? Is there another better way? I appreciate
the help. I thought I would run it by a few of you before
I started experimenting with this code and others that I
might find later.

Thanks, Rick
