Know if exe is running by its full exepath ?

[Spent]

Can you tell me how to findout if exe is running by identifying the exe by its exe path+name.For example to know if 'c:\games\Minesweap2\mine2.exe' is running.Thanks

hi,

ExtractFilePath will return the drivepath, Application.exename will return the name of the application.

ExtractFilePath(Application.ExeName) + Application.ExeName

Are you trying to find out where the current program is running, or do you want to know if a different program is running? Do you care where it runs from, or do you just want to know if a program is running?

If you want to know whether or not minesweeper is running:

If FindWindow(pchar('Minesweeper'),pchar('Minesweeper')) <> 0 then
showmessage('Look, it's minesweeper.');

I don't know how to determine the .exe location of an external program.
