Opening second associated file doesn't switch windows

Strange. Before I posted, a guy here told me to use
tweakui and uncheck the "focus" box. I did that but it
didn't seem to make a difference at the time. I tried
double clicking on three or four additional files and they
were opened in the application, but the window didn't
change.

Later, someone from our MIS dept was next door and I asked
her to take a look at the problem, except it wasn't there
anymore. The windows are opening fine.

The only thing I can think of is that perhaps I had closed
the application and re-opened it, or maybe manually
opening the window (when I checked to see if the files had
been opened) reset something. Or maybe the system simply
realized that I was serious about making it work right and
just gave up hassling me ;<)
