The window handle is used to deactivate the calling program. If this is not desired or possible, null can also be passed. In this case the calling program is responsible for closing the layout editor should the user abort the main program. This is not recommended. When minimizing the List & Label layout designer the calling program is automatically minimized, in the subsequent restoration List & Label is also restored.

Important: On an end user machine, this call will only succeed in the Professional version of List & Label. It will fail in the standard version.
