How can you check if an application is currently running?

IsMyAppRunning := wshShell.AppActivate('MyApp Title');

Thank you very much!!!!!

Do you know where I can find the "IWshRuntimeLibrary" library which I guess contains the "IWshShell_Class" Class which I again guess instantiates the wshShell of the example?

I've checked out MSDN Download but it's not very helpfull.

Already found it !! \:D/

If anybody is interested, search for "Windows Script Host Object Model" on the internet.

Sorry to disturb :oops:
