Launched application invisible

[Ralf Bitter]

Does anyone know under what circumstances  the launch command
launches an application in an invisible state?

Is there a Windows shell command to make the launched application  
visible again?

I have a windows standalone (runs on XP) with a launch command like:

put "C:/folder/folder/folder/folder/myApplication.exe" into tAppPath
do "launch" && quote & tAppPath & quote

This launches the application, but it is not visible. I can see the  
entry in the task manager.
There is no problem with the Mac standalone.

Did a quick test with another standalone, which does nothing but  
launch the said application.
It uses the same handler and it works as expected.
So, this must have to do with something specific to my standalone.

This is in version 2.8.1. Any idea, anyone?


Thanks,
