>>you can use the FindWindow API call to tell if that window is already open.
>>there is also a c program called run ( i think ) in the files section that will basically allow you to do this without waiting for the fox runtimes to load before issuing the api call.

>I just wanted to ask the same question. Excuse my ignorance, but what is the "files section" and where to find it? I was also trying to find "run.c" on my C: drive - none was found. BTW, I have VFP 5.0a installed as an FPW 2.6 upgrade - maybe there's something missing in my installation. TIA,

Click on the Filing Cabinet icon. The screen that appears will have several more Filing Cabinet icons on it. Click on the one labeled Win 32 & Other APIs. Another screen will appear with the files available for download from that section. Click on the title to download the zip file, then unzip it. I think this is the third or fourth item on the list.
