You could check the Form's WindowState; if it is Minimized, change it
to Normal (or what it was last)?

Hello Gidi,
This is standard behaviour, since win 98 and above.
Everything you can do, by standard is to use set the correct form state and
call Form.Activate. But it doesn't make your windows above your Outlook
another tricks, about making form "really active" involves registry editing
