How can I let my app know that an external program has ended? *[RESOLVED]*

Ok, this is what I want to do:[list=1][*]Have a bunch of files on disk and have the user select which file they want to view in a RichTextbox.[*]Have the user choose a menu item and be able to launch WordPad and automatically load the displayed text from the RichTextBox into WordPad ready for editing.[*]When the user has saved and exited WordPad, I want my app to realise this and reload the newly save text back into the RichTextBox.[/list=1] I can do steps 1 and 2, but not 3. How do I get my app to know when WordPad has exited so I can load the text back?

Thanks.

If you are using Shell function to launch wordpad then it has an option to wait (or not wait) till the program ends. If starting it as a new process then you can check for the existence of the procees.

Thanks Lunatic3, didn't realise there was a .WaitForExit() for a Process.Start() :D

And I spent ages trying to find a way!! :rolleyes:
