Command-Line Question?

Hi all,

Can anyone help me out with this. My program can open files from the command line, or more like myprogram.exe path and if command <> "" then it tries to load the file.

The problem is that, if my program is opened already, how can I send the command to the already open program and where does it go, eg. does my already open program start off again at form_initialize.

Thank you in advance

do you want to open another program if it is already opened ??

if not you could always check in your program

VB Code:

If App.PrevInstance = True Then End

I've made a couple of posts on this subject, using an ActiveX EXE to share information between instances of the same application.

Here's a link to one of them

Oh, i misunderstood the question.

You could use DDE to send information between two applications.

Search for DDE example on www.pscode.com/vb
