How to check if Form is active

I hope someone can help me,
Is there a way to have the program check if it is on the foreground?

I want to make a program which will open a 2nd program, once that 2nd program is finished/closed the focus should go back to my app and it needs to do something else.

I have tried with Form1.Focus (= true) and Control("Form1").Focus = true
But I cannot seem to get it working.
I also thought i might be able to use a Textbox for the focusing part but that
also didn't do anything.

The workaround would be to have a MsgBox popup which the user needs to click..
but that would only be a last resort ...

I could use some :sign0085:

See the ShellAndWait example: http://www.b4x.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2040
It will make your application wait for the second application to end.
If I remember correctly your application will be brought to the foreground.
There are other solutions available, so please reply if it didn't help.

it works like a charm, thanks for your help Erel

Wait for a sound command stop

Hello,
Is it also possible to wait for the end of a B4PPC command like sound?
I would like to wait for the end of the ".wav" file before doing something else.

Thank you.

If you know the length of the wave file you can add Sleep(...) after playing the sound.
If I remember correctly the Hekkus sound library allows you to wait for the sound to end.

Wait for a sound command stop

I don't know the length of the wave file,
so I'm gonna try the Hekkus lib
Thank you Erel.
