Start LabVIEW exe in background without stealing focus

[Taylorh140]

I am attempting to use a LabVIEW executable as a background service. I had two good pieces of information from these sources:

http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/EFEAE56A94A007D586256EF3006E258B

And now the window does not flicker or appear really at all, also it doesn't show up on the task bar.  However IT STEALS FOCUS from other applications when it starts. This interrupts data entry.

 

I am using some .net code to start up my processes (I was hoping that this would do most of the work for me)

I was curious if anyone had any other suggestions?

I found this gem! Strange that that isn't the recommended setting in the tutorial.
