I would like to to find out if, for instance, Explorer or Netscape is already running. I have heard that FindWindow API function can be used to search for the Window Title specified but the problem is that the Window Title can change depending on the site or file name which is open. Is there a way to go around this? <br>I have also heard that something called "App" can be used instead but unfortunately I can not find any example about this App on VB help topics. <br>If you know anything about these or any other way to find out if a program is already running please let me know. <br><br>Thank you for your time and effort. <br>
