Thanks Xavier, the temp folder approach to 1 is a good suggestion.
Cheers,

I couldn't find a simple answer to problem 1. You could move teh files to
a temp folder before deleting them in the same manner we use the recycle
bin.
For problem 2, this depends largely on the application and not on the OS.
Winamp for example offers the option to queue items opened or replace
them. It will never open a second instance of teh app either. Other
programs are less friendly. RR for one doesn't allow this choice which is
a big pain on windows - you can double click a stack but you will end up
with two different version of runrev running (or MC) possibly writing
different datas to the stacks - a big nono...
Some programs can be manipulated via switches using shell commands. Some
will show the help in the dos box, other wont.
Hope that helps. I know it's not much but it's as far as you will go without programming directly into the Windows API...
I"ll see if there is anything with WSH later...
