wshshell.run

[Jay2003]

Hi,

I have managed to pop a client application using the wshshell.run command.

I was now wondering if it is possible to instead of starting a new application/process, If the VBScript could interogate the client PC to see if the app is already running and if so then maximise and bring to focus.

Any feedback would be great,
Thanks

You may consider the WshShell.AppActivate method.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thanks PHV, However this only focus's if the application is in the background, If it is minimised then it doesn't pop. Did a bit of searching and it seems that this isn't available. Is that correct.

Another way is to use WMI to get all the running process.
