How can i tell if a program is running and is it in if..then...else

[wildcard]

need to be able to tell if the login program is running. and then is it in an if then else statement

I am not sure how you can tell which part of the code a pp is executing, ut you can find if a pp is running if you know the window caption. Use the FindWindow api call to determine if that particular application is currently running or not.

uh whats the full call?
my api viewer is nowhere to be found

[amitabh]

'api call
Private Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32" _
Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal lpClassName As String, _
ByVal lpWindowCaption As String) As Long
 
'code
Dim lngHwnd As Long
 
lngHwnd = FindWindow(vbNullString, "<your window caption>")
If lngHwnd > 0 Then MsgBox "Window found"
