Hi

Does anyone know how to detect if an application is running, I have tried the FindWindow() function but it always returns false, the application I'm looking for is recorded in the task manager as 'am.ovl' the application name is AssetCenter. I have tried the following

Peregrine AssetCenter.application
AssetCenter.application
am.ovl

Any Ideas

Thanks

Hey

I used microsoft's website and found some code that enables you to find windows based on the title of the application
