There is a win32 api method (SetForegroundWindow) that can be used to set the focused window if you have the window handle. Is there a way to do this with managed code?

Hi,

I'd happened to come across some information on this yesterday while searching doing some other research, and the consensus I get is that things like bringing the window to the front from the taskbar or giving focus seem to only be available by invoking the Windows API.
