>Christof,
>We are writing a utility to place in our app that helps our users understand that the app is Y2K compliant and also helps them to determine if their system is Y2K compliant. We know from past experiments that you do not want to change the system clock too far ahead if certain programs, such as Outlook, are running due to their purging functions. Is there a way in 2.6 to determine what progarms are running so that a list can be displayed to the user?

Sorry for butting in, but I'm pretty sure that George Tasker has written something that can do this.

Or if you have a Win9x machine, you might try the following:

FUNCTION GetProcessList
*-- Returns a cursor of running process
*-- Valid only for Win9x machines

LOCAL lnHandle, lsProcessEntry, lcCursName, lnOldArea

DECLARE INTEGER CreateToolhelp32Snapshot IN Win32Api INTEGER, INTEGER
DECLARE INTEGER Process32First IN Win32Api INTEGER, STRING @
DECLARE INTEGER Process32Next IN Win32Api INTEGER, STRING @
DECLARE INTEGER CloseHandle IN Win32Api INTEGER

lsProcessEntry = SPACE( ( 9 * 4) + 260)

lcCursName = SYS(2015)
lnOldArea = SELECT(0)
SELECT 0

CREATE CURSOR (lcCursName) (Process C( 254))

lnHandle = CreateToolhelp32Snapshot( 2, 0)
IF lnHandle > 0
lnProcess = Process32First( lnHandle, @lsProcessEntry)
DO WHILE lnProcess > 0
INSERT INTO (lcCursName) VALUES (STRTRAN((SUBSTR(lsProcessEntry, (9*4 + 1), 260)), CHR(0)))
lnProcess = Process32Next( lnHandle, @lsProcessEntry)
ENDDO
CloseHandle( lnHandle)
ELSE
*-- Error???
ENDIF

SELECT (lnOldArea)

RETURN lcCursName
