It appears that this is a continuing issue, not surprisingly. I have seen this behavior with a number of applications but Outlook is the most consistent culprit.
When looking at the Inbox list, you double-click on an email item to open it. The email opens but the main Outlook window comes back to the front with the focus.
I am running WinXP SP3, Outlook 2007, DF 3.1.10. My troubleshooting info is below.
Thanks much. BUD
