Hi,

I have an application which launches excel application (thru ActiveX
control) from IE browser through Applets.
Here Applets/Java objects interact with ActiveX controls which launches
Excel application.
On my browser i can see a list of excels saved in a folder which is
displayed on Applet window , when i try to access one of the excel file by
double clicking the file and move the focus to differnt window using TAB ,
excel doesnot get displayed properly and some of its portions are not
diaplyed like top ribbon control.

but if we don't move the focus to other window and wait for excel to open
after double click excel as a whole gets displayed properly.

Is it beacuse Focus is not there on excel application OnPaint/OnDraw for
excel controls is not getting called and hence all of it is not painted?

Thanks
- S
