Force external application to remain 'above' excel sheet
Greetings and thanks in advance for your time
I have an internet backgammon application that appears in a small window. I would like to have it floating on top of an excel sheet. Ideally, I would like to have the backgammon window positioned centre screen and be able to write to the excel cells that 'surround' it. I would like it to remain visible at all times. Is this possible via an excel setting, or maybe I need to seek advice about settings for the application itself or possibly a Windows XP setting?. I am running excel 2002 on Windows XP home edition. Any advice would be much appreciated |

Force external application to remain 'above' excel sheet
Go to your favorite shareware/freeware site (or google???) and search for:
"always on top" Freeware Or you may get lucky--some programs have a setting under preferences/options that allows them to be kept on top. You may want to look.
