Kouakou,

Here is a function that will determine if there are any instances of Internet Explorer running on a computer. One caveat, however, is that certain other applications, including windows explorer in Windows XP will use IE embedded for functionality, display, etc... without any actual IE windows being visible. Hope this functions helps.

FUNCTION IsIeRunning

	LOCAL llError, loObject, lcOnError, llIeRunning

	llIeRunning = .t.
	llError = .f.
	lcOnError = ON('error')

	ON ERROR llError = .t.

	loObject = GETOBJECT(,"internetexplorer.application")

	IF llError
		llIeRunning = .f.
	ENDIF

	ON ERROR &lcOnError

	RELEASE loObject

	RETURN llIeRunning
	
ENDFUNC

regards,

JE
