SOLUTION:  ;D
Modified the program to a Window not a dialog and it now works perfectly.  So you CAN'T use @TOPMOST with a dialog.
A few weeks ago Andy asked about keeping a Window as the foreground window when multi-tasking.
Should the @topmost flag work with a Dialog?
I've a little program with foreign characters which I want to keep in the foreground when using Word or another word processing program, but even with the @topmost flag it disappears when change my focus to Word in order to type etc.
If I change my Dialog to a Window, will that make a difference? :-\
			
			
			
				I don't know about a dialog because I never tried it, but I would think it would.
But I've got a memory monitor someone on the forums wrote usiing a window and @topmost and it stays on top.
Also, in the Visual designer I'm working on, the properties window stays on top using @topmost.

				Thanks.  I'll change my Dialog to a Window and see if it does make a difference.
