cpu time for apps?

Hi all,

Does anyone know how to get the CPU time and memory usage for an app. (when you go to task manager/proceses)

I'm writing an app to convert word files into chm's it works for the small files but when I try to use word libs to convert word to htms it crashes I the files are too big (> 5M) with lots of graphics. I've noticed that when it crashes cpu time and memory usage remain constant.

There is to be a list of about 150 word docs so I want to skip convertion of that file and continue with the next one. At the end the message will be displayed to say which files failed and ask to find other means of their conversion to htms.

Thank you

I've heard the there might be a way to access this info through the performance monitor libraries

Anyone?
