how do I restore a minimized app window?

[n2jesus]

Hi all,

another question. I have a script copying data from one app to another. For some reason, when the app that info is pasted to is left minimized, the first line of data pasted is lost. If the app is just in the background it works fine. How do I restore an app window from the minimized state? Hopefully this will take care of the above mentioned problem.

Thanks,

Jim

I think window state needs to be done with API calls which VBScript hasnt got - I dont know of a COM wrapper for these APIs. You could try SendKeys "% R" '(alt-space R). Probably sleep for half a second too.
