Hi,

is it possible with C#/.NET looking after previous instances of application,
or rather to check if previous instance is always running?

Thanks in advance,
Hubert
 
Hi,

static void Main()
{
// get the name of our process
string proc=Process.GetCurrentProcess().ProcessName;
// get the list of all processes by that name
Process[] processes=Process.GetProcessesByName(proc);
// if there is more than one process...
if (processes.Length > 1)
{
MessageBox.Show("Application is already running");
return;
} else
Application.Run(new Form1());
}
