Alex,

Sounds like a job for my IsRunning() function. See:

for more details.

Here's another way:

oManager = GETOBJECT("winmgmts:&quot
oProcesses = ;
oManager.InstancesOf("Win32_process&quot
FOR EACH oProcess IN oProcesses
?oProcess.NAME
NEXT

oManager = GETOBJECT("winmgmts:&quot

Subject to the OS off course. I don't think it runs '98 and NT.

Supposedly, the Windows Management Service starts automatically on NT +, and is available for 95 and 98.
I should post that disclaimer along with the samples I post for that service, but try it and see if it works.
