I'm glad you found a work-around. However, it would be interesting to understand what you did in your application that requires it.

Since the minimal application works fine, obviously there's some important difference between that minimal application and the one you're having trouble with. Knowing what that difference is could be very useful, and could in fact lead to a more elegant solution than calling Activate(). :)

If you do figure out what the actual issue is, please post back here to share with the rest of us, in case someone else has a similar problem.

Thanks,
