I use the following
PARAMETERS whatprg, justchecking
lcProcess=whatprg+".EXE"
lcComputer = "."
loWMIService = GETOBJECT("winmgmts:" +
"{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" + lcComputer + "\root\cimv2")
colProcessList = loWMIService.ExecQuery ("Select * from Win32_Process")
IF TYPE('colProcessList') = "O"
FOR EACH loProcess IN colProcessList
IF ALLTRIM(UPPER(loProcess.NAME)) == ALLTRIM(UPPER(lcProcess))
IF justchecking
iamopen=.t.
EXIT
endif
trt=MESSAGEBOX("Is it ok to close "+lcProcess+" ?",4+32,'')
IF trt=6
loProcess.TERMINATE()
exit
ENDIF
NEXT
ENDIF && IF TYPE('colProcessList') = "O"
RELEASE colProcessList, loWMIService
