Hi there,
With App.PrevInstance you come to know whether Instance of your application is running or not. But is there any way if your application's one instance is running and currently it is minimized and some one clicks on to same application exe icon then this minimize application should come to its normal state (unminimized).
In short is there any way to bring your minimized application to its normal state programmitically.
Thanx
VB Code:
Option Explicit
Private Declare Function IsIconic Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long) As Long
Dim IsIt As Boolean
Private Function IsWindowMinimized(ByVal hwnd As Long) As Boolean
IsWindowMinimized = Not (IsIconic(hwnd) = 0&)
End Function
Private Sub Form_Load()
'To Find Out If The Window Is Minimized
If App.PrevInstance = True Then
MsgBox "Found another Instance"
IsIt = IsWindowMinimized(Me.hwnd)
If IsIt = True Then 'application is minimized
Me.WindowState = vbNormal
End If
End If
End Sub
Hi Hack,
Thanks for your assistance, but the above code when converted to an .exe and when I stated the 2nd instance of the application it gave me the message "Found another Instance" and the minimized application was as it is in the task bar and the new instance of the application was created. So 2 instance of the application was running on the same PC. Looking for further assistance.
