PrevInstance

[David de Passos]

Hi!
There is my code:

Shared Function PrevInstance() As Boolean
If
Ubound(Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName(Diag nostics.Process.GetCurrent
Process.ProcessName)) > 0 Then
Return True
Else
Return False
End If
End Function

this dosn´t work in Windows 98 or Windows ME. How can I do to see if an
application is already running?

Hi,

You are better off using a mutex to tell if there is another
instance of the app running.

Error message? 'Process' is based on performance counters, make sure
performance counters are enabled.
