Hi,

I'm building a database that will act a bit like a calendar for callback
appointments. Basically, I want a pop-up message to appear before the
callback is due to get the user to make the call. This I can do but....

is it possible to create a pop-up that will be displayed on top of all other
programs that are running? A bit like MS Outlook would pop-up with a meeting
reminder.

At present I have a msgbox that pops-up and if the user is using another
application this will just make the application bar flash (at the bottom of
the screen with the time etc. I forget what the proper name is)

very grateful for any help.
 
Maybe need some API to do this

put this at the top of a module (first line)

Private Declare Function BringWindowToTop Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long)
As Long

Then use it like this to activate you app

BringWindowToTop Application.hWndAccessApp
