I tried it different ways. There is a cancel button on it and the user may
need to cancel the operation. If the window can't get focus, the user
can't click the cancel button.
Huh, well in my test it didn't. I'm on Windows though, so maybe other
OSs work differently. Can you try it on Windows? I'm curious now if
it's the code you have or a difference in OS.
This quick and dirty, but it does it. Quick and dirty in the generated
by a GUI tool and I didn't clean it up. Three files, three classes,
snip on the <<<<<'s.
