Here you go. In your main.prg put



* check if the program is open already by checking for your application title
if ckrun("HeksasCoolDatabaseApp")
quit
endif




The function is then:
**********************************************************
* detects if program is already running
* if it is then it shuts down

FUNCTION ckrun
PARAMETERS WindowName
#define GW_OWNER 4
#DEFINE GW_HWNDFIRST 0
#DEFINE GW_HWNDNEXT 2

declare integer GetWindowText in win32api integer, string, integer
declare integer GetWindow in win32api integer,INTEGER
declare integer IsWindowVisible in win32api integer
declare integer GetActiveWindow in win32api
IsWindEx = .F.
if len(WindowName) < 1
return .t.
endif
foxhwnd = GetActiveWindow() && get the window handle of this window
hwndNext = GetWindow(foxhwnd,GW_HWNDFIRST) && get the handel of the first window

**** loop thru each window to search the title
DO WHILE hwndNext <> 0
*** if window is not the foxpro handle and not a child window
IF (hwndnext <> foxhwnd .AND. GetWindow(hwndnext,GW_OWNER) = 0)

Stuffer = SPACE(64)
