I create alot of vb projects that processes data to SQL7 , Excel, and Access. When processing the data I usually have a progress bar running or use Label captions to keep track of what has been processed. The problem is that when the .exe is running and I
minimize the form to the systray I can never RESTORE the form
to Desktop until the code has completed. I would like to check
the status of the processing periodically. I have not used API yet but it seems API programming is the only answer. Don't I have to capture the handle somehow in order to RESTORE the
form?? Any code avaliable to show me the way???

Thanks in Advance
