I have a strange problem with WinCC V6.2 (running on XP Pro SP2) and I'm wondering whether anyone knows a solution. Here goes...

On a maintenence screen I have a button that excecutes the following code: "ProgramExecute("C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\control.exe timedate.cpl");". This opens the standard windows control panel applet for date and time management on the PC. The problem is that after a few seconds the focus is lost back to the WinCC runtime and the date/time applet moves to the background. I should also point out that this only occurs with the runtime running full screen, if you put it in a window then the problem goes away.

Anyone seen this before / know a solution?
