Mr. Lopes

I've very close to my goal. Your assistance was excellent. Marco's work helped too. I combined a few things and found a combination that works, so that I at least get hWnd, Pid, exe file name and ExecutablePath. I admit it's a guess that AWindowsEx does not include the path. If I'm wrong on that, please let me know.

Beyond that, I would much rather create a cursor than an array because Fox gives so many ways to iterate through a cursor.

So far, the launcher can switch to the existing app or launch one. I am playing with hiding the executing icon, so the only icon visible is the launcher. I got it to hide the executable, but can't get it to show, so I can switch to it.
