Okay, I fixed my problem, and I suppose you can set up your class to do the same thing. My apps use an include file and I set a DEFINEd constant called _APPNAME, which is the name of the application. After replacing all cases of "DDEMyAppIsOpen" with "_APPNAME" (no quotes for the constant), it works great for multiple FoxPro applications.

Thanks for your feedback. After reading your message, it suddenly was obvious why it was not working.

>>The VCX works great, except that I cannot run a second FoxPro app that is DIFFERENT from the first occurrence. In other words, the VCX properly tests for whether the currently loading app is already running. However, if a differnt app built in FoxPro is started, the VCX thinks this is a second occurrence, too.
