Applications, Processes and Alt-TAB

Hi
I am just beginning to learn Revolution, by converting an old VB6  
project.  I am using OS 10.4.2 on a Macintosh.

When I compile the standalones, for the Mac version, Cmd-Tab works as  
expected.  The application name is listed, and I can move between  
open applications.

Under XP the following happens.

(I have the Windows Task Manager Open to see what is happening)
The application name is listed under the Processes tab.
The current Stack name is registered under the Application tab.
If I Alt-Tab, the current Stack name is removed from the Applications  
list.
And so I can't get back to it.  But the Application is still listed  
under the processes list.

If I compile a single stack test program then Alt-Tab works as  
expected.  The application is listed under Applications, and there is  
no entry in the Processes TAB.


I have searched the archives, but can't find any help there.
