Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

You must call these functions: SetWindowPos($Form1, $HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, BitOR($SWP_NOMOVE,$SWP_NOSIZE)) SetWindowPos($Form1, $HWND_NOTOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, BitOR($SWP_NOMOVE,$SWP_NOSIZE)) from some buttons or menu items, first or second one. My code was only code snippet! If you don't understand this then it's not for you. Resources UDF ResourcesEx UDF AutoIt Forum Search
