Make a window always on top?

I am making a password program. I already have the code to disable ctrl+alt+del and alt+tab, but I am having the problem that the start menu still shows up over the window, and any programs you open after that show up over the window too, so the password window is nothing but a small nuisance. How do I make the window always on top, or fix this problem some other way? Thank you in advance!:)

you can use the following code

Declarations
Declare Function SetWindowPos& Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Long, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long, ByVal cx As Long, ByVal cy As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long)

Code
'this code makes the window stay on top
rtn = SetWindowPos(OnTop.hwnd, -2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3)
'window will not stay on top with this code
rtn = SetWindowPos(OnTop.hwnd, -1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3)

don't have vb 6 on this computer but i think this is done by setting your form to vbmodal.
something like form_load(vbmodal)

modal and always on top is not the same.

A modal form will not let to focus on the owner form without closing it first. An always on top window will remain on top of all other windows (unless it's another top-most window) even when it does not have focus.

well, like i said, i never used it and have no vb6 or msdn on this pc...

modal is on VB6 only???

i think he was talking to megatron...

just ment that i only have vb.net on this pc no vb6 or earlier version

Well, i patched up JoiJo's code for you, Jaded. Just plop the following in a module.

VB Code:

 SetWindowPos F.hwnd, -2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3

 SetWindowPos(F.hwnd, -1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3) 
End If
End Sub

OK, i agree this is simple code. But it works. :) OK, now, all we need to figure out is how to startmenu toolbar thingy is controlled... bet its an API call. Ill go check and if i find something, ill post it. :)
