If the application is allowed to remember where the cursor was when the 
window switched everything should be fine.  I have one PC app that 
drives me nuts because when I switch back to it's window, the database 
cell is still highlighted but the mouse has to be used to "reactivate" 
it for input.  Very expensive professional app, too, but it's what I 
have to use to do business.
