How to restore a minimized form open on a different desktop

I have two forms. Form one is a customer sign in. Form two is tied to a query
and populates with customer name, time signed in etc., when form one is
submitted. Form two is open on a different pc than form one. I want to be
able to make form two restore from a minimized state when a new customer
signs in on form one. I can only seem to make this happen if both forms are
open on the same pc but not open on different pc's as is intended. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,


If both applications share a common database, have a timer (on a form)
that looks into a table to see if another application has just wrote in the
table and if so, do what is required, locally. Sure, that assumes the other
application modifies the content of the said table when something
"interesting" occur.
