The Activate method can be used only with the editing window types; if used with a designing window type, it will raise an exception.

To determine whether a window is the active window, use the Active property.

This member can be accessed only by forms running in the same domain as the currently open form, or by forms that have been granted cross-domain permissions.

This type or member can be accessed only from code running in forms opened in Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007.
