Handle the <resume> <message> if you want to perform some action when the <application> is made active.

The <resume> <message> is sent whenever the user switches back to the <application> from another program.

The actual switch is not triggered by the <resume> <message>, so <trap|trapping> the <message> and not allowing it to <pass> does not prevent the user from switching into the <application>.
