How can I bring a window to the foreground in Vista using C++?

Question

I have a piece of code that brings the window under the cursor to the foreground using the SetForegroundWindow API for WinXP. I have been testing it for Vista but the API seems to no longer do the job correctly.

AllowSetForeground did not help, my process is a background process.

What can I use to accomplish this?

Try the following code and see if it works for you:

SetWindowPos(WndHandle,HWND_TOPMOST,0,0,0,0,SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOSIZE);
SetWindowPos(WndHandle,HWND_NOTOPMOST,0,0,0,0,SWP_SHOWWINDOW | SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOSIZE);
