Custom Action that displays a Window behind AI Dialog?

I've tried just about everything to get my CustomAction that runs exe that has a window that prompts the user to be "focused" on top of the AI Dialog, but nothing seems to work. Is there some setting in AI that I can check to say give my CustomAction EXE topmost focus?

Cheers, Rob.

Re: Custom Action that displays a Window behind AI Dialog?

IGNORE this post, I was able to resolve the issue via my application code to force my message window to display in front of the AI Dialog.

In my case, I just need to adjust my code and subscribe to the activated event (on my window) and then do a this.Focus().
