>If so, it's the same process you'd use when hiding the standard toolbar. Namely, something like

IF WEXIST("PROJECT MANAGER")

>ENDIF

When exiting

IF WEXIST("PROJECT MANAGER")
>  SHOW WINDOW "PROJECT MANAGER"
>ENDIF

My Is_Run() doesn't check child windows. However, the _VFP system variable can tell you how many projects are open and give you a reference to the current project via the ActiveProject Object.
