Being frankly I wouldn't do it this way if I coded it now. I'm dealing only with the one I invoked and this works (might it not :( ?). I didn't yet try isrun32 instead yet.

Hidy Cetin,

Hey, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. And I have a story (involving software) in this regard, that'll I'll share with anyone that asks.

Even with Is_Run32() there's a possibility that the wrong value will be return if it isn't supplied with enough information. Imagine a scenario where there are two instances of notepad open, if you call Is_Run32() with just "Notepad" as the parameter there's a 50% chance you'll get the right one. The more information you supply it, the more accurate the result will be.
