Set these VB.NET Form properties:
myForm.WindowState = FormWindowsState.Normal '(or
FormWindowState.Maximized)
myForm.TopMost = True
There is an equivelent in VB6 for WindowsState:
myForm.WindowsState = vbNormal
(You need API32 call to make a form Topmost. However, showing the form
usually does that for you. Showing a form already instantiated calls
myForm.Activate in VB6 (not myForm.Load). If you have code in the
myForm.Activate that should only run once, then you need to set a form level
boolean true inside an IF block that can only be etered if that same boolean
is false. In VB.NET it is more messy. Both MyForm.Load event handler and
myForm.Activated events are raised when the form activates...
