Author Stop command window from being always on top

In earlier versions of VFP (up through 6, at least), the window you were
working in was displayed on top of whatever else was open. In VFP 8 and 9,
the command window overlays the active window (program, form, report...),
making it awkward to work. I find it convenient to have to have the command
window open all the time, but I don't want it to hide what I'm doing!

Is there a way to configure VFP9 so the command window is not always on top
of the display?

Thanks!

Right click on the Command WIndow titlebar and unselect "Dockable"
