JC, no code to hand, but as you say this is dead easy if run from a form.
Set the Timer to the frequency.

With the InTimer()
Do a  dir() to see if its there.
End of heartache

Waiting for my Lottery numbers to come up...

Have you any code for that..I will swap...

Subject: [dba-VB] c# - Monitor folder and run application

Just wondering if anyone has already done this and could send me a solution.

I need to monitor a folder and run an application if a file exists.

I have found code that runs an app and waits a time period for it to
complete, closing the app if it 
doesn't complete within that time period.

In addition to that I need the monitoring code, and all wrapped up in a
single solution.

This doesn't appear too tough given all the code snipits out there but why
reinvent the wheel if you 
have done it.
