Hi Rob, I've used pre-.Net exe's that way. I first used DDE from the MB app to try and contact the EXE before starting a new instance. If a contact was made, the EXE was running, and the MB app could transfer parameters to it instead of issuing a Run Program.
But I suppose .Net excludes the use of DDE ?? ;-) Best regards/Med venlig hilsen Lars V.
