Prev instance of application

[chander]

i want to show main form of my prev application ( if it minimised it should come up means i want to set main form to vbnormal ) when second instance of application is started .. and close the second new instance...

any tips on this ??

If App.PrevInstance = True Then

' all action done here happned on new instance on application
' how to show prev application main form here ???

End

End If

If App.PrevInstance = True Then 
   if me.WindowState = vbminimized Then
      me.WindowState = vbnormal
   end if
endif
