PBCompiler 8.0.4 makes my program do unexpected stuff...

[Roger Garstang]

Steve,
BTW:
The static counter is just to explain, that on the fourth or fifth time the NCACTIVATE happens, my program starts to blink
in the taskbar with PB Win8.04. In fact, thats just a "cosmetical add on" to decribe the problem more accurate.

And it will probably be close to that count since you will get this message when your app goes active and inactive. Might even be more if they are sent during the blinking since this message does relate more to the Titlebar/border of your window. Michael's suggestion for what Activate message would be best since it is when the client area is active you won't have to worry about anything concerning only titlebars and even messages when your app may be in taskbar only, etc.
