MATLAB: Does a figure window open in the foreground in MATLAB 7.0 (R14) when I create the figure using Visual Basic

automationcomddeMATLABr14sp1r14sp2scriptserversupportvb

I use the following Visual Basic commands to generate a MATLAB figure window:
Private Sub test()
Dim MatLab As Object
Dim Result As String
Set MatLab = CreateObject("Matlab.Application")
Result = MatLab.Execute("plot(1:10)")
End Sub
When I execute this function, the resulting window opens in the foreground in MATLAB 7.0 (R14), whereas in MATLAB 6.5 (R13), the figure opens in the background.
