How to keep automation calling form in focus?

O

oldsportbiker

I have a database that I use to run daily update macros in 8 other databases.
I do it from module code called from a form. When it's running, the calling
form doesn't get refreshed by Windows if I open up other programs that share
my screen space. The outer boundaries remain, but the other programs
overwrite the interior of the Access window. When each database macro
complets I make a repaint call to the form and that works until I overlay
another programs window. I've tried many things in the past 2 weeks but can't
seem to solve this problem.
