ShowGroup

The syntax for the ShowGroup command has this form:

ShowGroup(GroupName,ShowCommand[,CommonGroupFlag])

The ShowGroup command instructs Program Manager to minimize, maximize, or restore the window of an existing group.

Following are the parameters for this command:

GroupName

Identifies the group window to be minimized, maximized, or restored.

ShowCommand

Specifies the action Program Manager is to perform on the group window. This parameter is an integer. It must have one of the following values.

CommonGroupFlag

Specifies whether the group is a common group or a personal group. If this parameter is 1, the group being minimized, maximized, or restored is a common group; if it is 0, the group is a personal group. This parameter defaults to 1 (common group) if no value is specified. To minimize, maximize, or restore a common group, the user currently logged on must have administrative privileges. If this parameter is 1 but the user does not have administrative privileges, the command fails.
