Having created a VFP5 EXE file from a project, I want to be ale to call it from other VFP apps and wait until it's completed processing before continuin with the calling app.

I can use the GetWindow API functions to check whether an app of a givne name is running; problem is, the EXE runs with the name "Microsoft Visual Foxpro". How do I change the name of my EXE to be something more unique and descriptive? The EXE itself is called PURGEAPP.EXE, so it's not getting the name from there.

Thanks in advance...
