Hi team

 

I need some code to see if XYZ.exe or ABC.EXE is 'running' or not (EG
notepad.exe)

I have found some stuff in VB but am not able to get it to work. 

I was just wondering if anyone has done this in Access and is able to share
:-)
I basically want to see if an app is 'running' then simply report True or
False
back to my access app.

I don't want to open or close this app - just see if it's 'running'

Many thanks in advance

 

DD
