Ive been trying to keep a secondary form for my app to remain on top. Ive tried:

SetWindowPos(sub,HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOSIZE);

sub being the handle to my form. Thanks for any advice!

SetFocus

Does this permanently force the window to remain on top? I want it to react like the "Always on top" option that is in the Windows Onscreen Keyboard.

*Edit*
Just tried SetFocus, but it doesn't achieve what im looking for. See above.
Thanks

I believe this is what you are looking for:

Hmm... Maybe it wont work in my situation. So ive got form1, my main form. When Form1's button is clicked, Form2.Show() is called. Then a button on Form2 is pressed which applies that code after grabbing its handle.

The Result:
Form2 is always on top compared to form1, but I want it to be ontop in comparison to, say: Firefox.

Hope this can help u help me Very Happy

if this in delphi:
change the formstyle to "fsStayOnTop" in the object inspector.

Ok. This got the same results as setwindowpos, so i changed some. I have both the main form and form2 to formstyle: fsStayOnTop. Now it works, so I have my 2 forms always on top, although i'd have prefered just the 2nd. I'll just end up hiding my 1st form anyway...

THANKS!
