Notes
|
If the named application is minimized or hidden, the
AppMinimize
statement will have no effect.
The name$ parameter is the exact string appearing in the title bar of the named application's main window. If no application is found whose title exactly matches name$, then a second search is performed for applications whose title string begins with name$. If more than one application is found that matches name$, then the first application encountered is used.
AppMinimize
generates a runtime error if the named application is not enabled, as is the case if that application is displaying a modal dialog box.
