processes

Can anybody help me.

I have a program that is going to run about 600 command line operations. Each one is seperate. I need to limit the machines processes due to memory issues so would like to run only about 100 at a time. Is this possible and if so, can someone help.

Greatfully
Alex. :eek:

Use loops :

Code:

---

For i = 1 to 100
  'first process here
Next i

For i2 = 1 to 100
  'Second process here
Next i

---

Etc. The second won't start until the first has finished.
(BTW - use a doevents in there too)! ;)

Its all running in a while loop and has two stages, after further thaught i have decided that it would be easyer to monitor shelled app and wait for that to finnish bofore i start the next step.

If anyone knows how to do that i would be greatful.:rolleyes:

Any chance of posting some of the code to give me an idea of what you're trying please :) ?
