How to bring only 1 window within an application to the front.

gwithey asked:

Hi All,

I am a little stuck with a window layering issue.

I have an application (App1) which should bring another application (App2) to the front which seems to work ok, yet the original application (App1) should bring one of its windows (Not the whole app) to the front of the other application (App2).

The issue i am getting here is when i click the small dialog which is currently on top (App1) it brings the whole of (App1) to the front hiding (App2).

Does anyone know how to stop the small dialog in (App1) from bringing its whole application to the front and allowing just itself to be topmost.

Thanks in Advance George
