Is it possible to determine whether a VFP 7 .exe is running more than once on a PC running either W98, ME, 2000 or XP?
Here is my scenario:
I don't think I can use a semaphore file without a lot of work because most forms, etc are closing all tables upon release.
Also, creating a file when the app starts and then deleting it upon exit can result in support calls if the app doesn't terminate gracefully.

TIA.
