Not as simple as it looks

I have a form that opens several modeless dialogs. Sometimes they become
covered by other (unrelated) applications and its annoying to click on each
dialog to make them visible again. I would like all dialogs to become
visible when main form becomes visible. Main form keeps pointers to modeless
dialogs.
Here is what I tried:
- Created an Activate event handler for the main form and inserted a call to
dlg.BringToFront(). The main form becomes not operational (it wouldn't react
to any commands).
- Put a call to dlg.BringToFront() in main form Paint event handler. It's a
little better, but main form stops reacting if dialog overlaps with it.
- Replace dlg.BringToFront() with dlg.Invalidate() to force repainting. Does
nothing (dialog stays covered.
- In the main for Activate or Paint handlers also call the base class. Does
nothing (Activate) or makes it worse (Paint)
Any ideas?
