Find And Run Robot / Re: Thanks, with questions...

you definitely should not have to hit alt-tab to switch to it after it activates. does this always happen? what application grabs focus from it? or does the focus stay with the application you were using when you hit break.
maybe when you hit break you are in an app that is stealing back focus? does this behavior happen no matter what app you are using?
what os does it happen in?
find&run has had tons of testing on my single pc, but not much testing out in the real world, so there could be issues liek this that need addressing - i will fix it, we just have to find a way for me to see the problems.
yes this is what it should do - i will check the code to make sure i'm not doing something stupid. but yes it should exit immediately after telling the file to open.
i'm not sure why its having trouble with shortcuts.. can you be a little more specific about what it does?
all of these problems are on a win2k machine? if so i will try some extra tests on a win2k machine and see what i see, though really it shouldnt be any dif than winxp.
tell me what you would like wrt columns - there are various options in the config to change what is displayed, from just the file/shortcut name to a bunch of columns. if you have some dif requests let me know.
i'm going to try to do some updates next week of my apps so its a good time for requests :)

- On that note, is there a way to make FindRun close at the beginning of the launch process rather than once the target application becomes active?
