Hi All,

(I have posted similiar question ealier. Hope the other smart ones can
also catch this mesage instead.)

I have an windows form application that dynamically creates a lot of
child windows. I want such that when the user clicks on one of the child
windows, the window should goes to the front, but NOT the other windows.

If I set the ShowInTaskBar property to true for all the child windows,
then I get the effect (as mentioned above) that I want. But if the
property is set to false. Any time I click on one of the child windows, the
window goes to the top, but so DOES the other child windows!

Can anyone may tell me why and give me a hint or two to resolve this
issue?

P.S. Thanks for Iulian and other posters who gave me some sugestions in the
past.
