From within Java, I am opening an Excel file with the default file handler (MS Excel, in this case :-) ) using the method described in this stackoverflow question:
Desktop dt = Desktop.getDesktop();
dt.open(new File(filename));
However, the Excel program doesn't get the focus. Is there any easy way to do so?
Edit: There is a related stackoverflow question for C#, but I didn't find any similar Java method.
