One possible approach: <http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2006/7/9/167174> (I've already posted my code for doing this, so check the archives.) Since you will be notified every time a different app comes to the front, you can just keep track - when your app comes to the front, the one you *previously* recorded as being in front is the one you're after. (It may, of course, have now terminated.) m. -- matt neuburg, phd = m...@tidbits.com, <http://www.tidbits.com/matt/> A fool + a tool + an autorelease pool = cool!
