Hello,
Here is a simple answer that will avoid using WinAPI and other complex stuff
In the Form.Load function [when app starts] of your VB app, create file text
somewhere [c:\AppIsRunning.txt]
In the Form.UnLoad function [when app terminates] delete the file
In MB code
If FileExists("c:\AppIsRunning.txt")
Kill "c:\AppIsRunning.txt" ''''just in case it is still around from a
previous crash
End If
''''''launch VB app #1
DO WHILE while FileExists("c:\AppIsRunning.txt")=True
LOOP
'''''launch VB app #2
DO WHILE FileExists("c:\AppIsRunning.txt")=True
LOOP

Subject: MI-L MI:How to detect when a user closes a program from mapbasic
Hello list,
If I launch a VB program from within MapBasic, is it possible to determine
when the user closes the program?
I need to wait for this program to run and then launch another one.
Thanks in advance,
