Bringinmg an application window back into focus

Gurus,

I have a desktop application that I launch via script. But for a process
inside of it to complete I need the application window to be open but AND
active. Does anyone know of a script which can bring say for instance, a
single application window that is open on the desktop back into "focus".
You can easily distinguish the active window because it's title bar is dark
blue versus the pale gray of an inactive window.

Spin

Well it is not very efficient, however it works... you will need to know the
"title" of application window that is running.

Set oShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
oShell.Run "notepad"
oShell.AppActivate "Untitled - Notepad"

This sample launches Notepad and the AppActivate brings focus to it
referencing the application title.
