Steve,

There is a big difference between windows focus and modal/nonmodal dialogs.

from a google search.....
"A nonmodal window allows a user to interact with other windows in the application.

So, what this all means is that a modal Alert window prevents users from clicking on anything but the displayed Alert window itself. Therefore, a user can't go any further until they dismiss the pop-up, similar to how the OS displays some error messages. A nonmodal window lets users merrily click on either the window or any components or gizmos underneath the Alert."

In Cometwin you can call either

CW.CreateModelessDialog

or

CW.CreateModalDialog

You can set the focus to any window by setting cosCWnd$ to the window handle and then calling COS.SetFocus.
