Hi Jim, The windows process is created first. Within the process the CLR is started. Within the CLR the default App Domain is created. Then the CLR loads and executes the code for your application.
So it's not really correct to say that the App Domain gets a process, it's kind of the other way around. If you want, you can create more App Domains within an existing instance of the CLR by using System.AppDomain.CreateDomain. If you need even more control, you can use the unmanaged interfaces to the CLR which allow you to write your own CLR host, se e 'Hosting the Common Language Runtime' in the SDK.
