A side effect of displaying a dialog box using the native win32 api is that the normal message loop processing of the application is disabled and replaced by a special dialog box message processing loop. This has various unpleasant side-effects and I think possibly the alt-tab issue is one of them. The MFC class library gets around this by "faking" a modal dialog box. It does this by explicitly calling EnableWindow(FALSE) on the parent window, effectively making it look like the dialog box is modal.
