SUMMARY
=======
The AppActivate command activates the specified window in a program other than
Microsoft Word. Use AppActivate to switch to another program that is already
running or that you have started by using Shell. To activate a window within
Microsoft Word, use the Activate command.
NOTE: If the other program is minimized, the AppActivate command will not
maximize that program; it simply gives that program the focus and then returns
the focus to Word.
MORE INFORMATION
================
For more information about switching focus to another program from Word 97 for
