	I need some pointers on how to accomplish a certain task in my 
program (written with Aztec) which I can't seem to do under Intuition.  I
have two screens which you can switch between (I use ScreenToFront()) each
of which has a backdrop window.  How can I force the topmost screen's window
to become active from within the program?  Right now you have to click on the
window before it will display menus.  I have combined the message ports of the
two windows with ModifyIDCMP(), but that still doesn't do what I require, since
the active menu strip is attached to the screen which is active (and which has 
just been hidden by the new screen coming to the front).  I would like to 
accept E-mail responses, but they must go to utzoo!yetti!lethe!hobie, and not to
this address.  Many thanks.
