Hi:
Is it possible to do a createobject to a) bring up instances of Photoshop and Bridge b) and to check if their processes have already instantiated? There seems to be more than one name for Photoshop-type objects?

At the moment, I have Photoshop up. In Foxpro, with the following, I can see that oMyObject = "C" but that does not reflect whether the process itself exists. Maybe there is another way to tell? I can't find my book by Tamar that tells, I believe, how to know if an instance of Excel exists?

set step on
oMyObject = "Photoshop.Application"
IF VARTYPE(oMyObject)<>"O"    ** or if I use "C"
    oMyObject=CreateObject(oMyObject)
ENDIF

Thank you,
Steve
