"multi-tasking" kind of........

[haz]

This should be very simple. I hope.

Basically I have a program that uses winsock to recieve incoming messgages to it and then it pops the message up, however I have found that if the Form is not in focus, then the messages will not be recieved until I bring the form back into focus, is there any way to allow the program to run in the background so that messages are recieved even if I am doing somthing else???

try this :

Sub data_is_comming()
 Form1.SetFocus
 ' operations to popup the message
End Sub

And so, the form will appears or it will blink on taskbar

Hope it was helpful
