open explorer in front of full screen exe

[imagesinmotion]

At the moment I have an exe file that opens up full screen. There is a button that opens up a PDF document in explorer. Here is the script for the button

on(release) {
getURL("doc.pdf", "_blank");
}

The document opens up fine but because the exe file is full screen the viewer has no idea that the document is open.

Is there a way to open the document in front of the exe.

go to http://www.extendingflash.com and look for a free utility called topmost. It was created by Northcode, who is the moderator of the standalone forum, and is designed for exactly this problem. You might also do well to have a look at some of the other posts in the standalone forum regarding getURL problems and opening files in their native application

The apps look great and look like they will do the job, but how do you use them? Is there a step by step tutorial on this somewhere? I have dug around here and been to the site(s) but all I get are differing explanations of what the end results are. Can someone post a step by step tutorial or tell me if one exists for these awesome apps (especially topmost). FYI... running XP with FlashMX 2002 Pro.

Thanks
