Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
Windows
SYMPTOM(s):
Window opened from a dialog box is displayed behind the dialog
Child Window is parented to a dialog box.
A window is run from a parent dialog box with the RUN statement.
The window cannot receive focus.
CAUSE:
This is because a dialog box is always modal. When a dialog box is displayed, the user must react to that dialog box and cannot work in any other window until the dialog box is closed.
FIX:
To resolve this problem change the dialog box to a window and use the MOVE-TO-TOP and MOVE-TO-BOTTOM methods to bring the appropriate window forward on the desktop.
