Nope, Windows 2003 Standard Edition.  Essentially XP on steroids I think.

That's odd.  My experiences have always had the message box show up on top
of everything.  You are using messagebox.show, right?

When I run my program, the form immediately pops up, I click a button and
the program starts processing files.  I added a messagebox.show to inform me
when each file finishes (I was timing with a stopwatch) but that message box
does not pop up over the top of everything else.  The program has stopped
and the message is up, but behind everything else and I do not see it unless
I click the form icon in the tool bar.  It doesn't even cause the tool bar
icon for the form to change color or flash.

Is there a way to make it do so (somehow notify me)?
